    Was wondering if any of you have the same gap on your rear window that I have in these pics. When you travel at high speeds (above 55 mph) you can hear the wind noise in the cabin when sitting in the 2nd row.

    I went through a car wash today and didnt notice any water coming through so that was a bit of a relief. Just seems a little odd that there would be that kind of opening between the glass and where it seals.

    Lots of stuff!
    I have what appears to be the same gap. In my case, the glass runs into the gasket past the vertical defroster foil. So it isn't a gap where the window has an opening, it just looks like an opening. Do you have the same plastic trim on the outside?

    ahh it does have the plastic trim. Thanks for the explanation. Appreciate the quick reply... have you ever had any issues with condensation getting through into the cabin?

    The brown strip is the element for the defroster, not the edge of the glass.
