Default Roof panel molding....

I feel dumb asking this. I just got my car back from getting the roof panel painted. On my way home last night I looked up and thought that something just didn't look right. But maybe I was just looking for something to be wrong. On both the passenger and driver side, where the top of the window hits the weather strip on the roof panel, is there a trim piece there? I could have sworn that I was not able to see the top weather stripping from the inside.

I am sure this is confusing as hell. A picture would be great....I know. If you were sitting in your car (drivers side) and you followed the trim piece that went from your windshield back to the drivers side window. What would you see? I can see the weather strip for the window. Hope that makes more sense.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks. Car looks good too. It's been raining here for awhile. Nice weather this weekend, I hope to get it detailed and take some pictures.

Thanks

Hey, there are no dumb questions when it comes to learning about our C5's.

I just went out in my garage and sat in my coupe. I saw about 3/4" of the lower edge of the rubber weather strip against the glass, from the windshield pillar back to the halo area behind my head. The same on both sides.

I think you're still sane!!
