Anyone know what this brittle plastic trim would be called? Its gotten old and it started fallin apart on the safelite guy. Thanx in advance.

I believe its a windshield cowl. But iam having trouble locating one for my m235

Yes, that's it. Using the part # you can search other vendors. FCP Euro want $106 with free shipping & lifetime replacement warranty.

I noticed there's a strip of something that runs parallel to that... 51487325890 it looks like it is the part you're after but it might just be a separate piece on the inside of the window.

You may have to call the parts counter at your dealer and see what they say.. They usually are pretty helpful for finding parts if you describe them. Like ask, "is the part I'm after a roll of rubber or is it the whole cowl?"
