Causing this to happen (I’d just pulled the windshield because of the stupid trim clips at the center top (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) )

This is the 2nd post I have seen regarding window trim popping off at speed. What is causing this? I have had my car at 130 for a good bit and no issues so far. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

If this turns out to be the trim clips, I'd be laying down the $$$s for the Porsche OEM clips.

I also would guess that the trim clips were not replaced (no windshield shop would stock these). Or it wasn’t clipped all the way if it was replaced

Believe the factory calls these clips one time use
Most windshield shops use glue instead of and just are not familiar with using clips
