Drake44135 Posted March 17, 2021 #1 Posted March 17, 2021 (edited) Good morning everyone. Im sure this is an easy fix. But I’m lost. And you all know damn near everything. The chrome trim under the windscreen on my 2010 keeps popping up. It seems the only thing holding it from flying off are the two side screws. I did put double sided tape down. But didn’t hold. just curious. Am I doing something wrong. The tabs are not broken. But they are not holding in place. Edited March 17, 2021 by Drake44135
Bobcat54s Posted March 20, 2021 #2 Posted March 20, 2021 I had the same problem this weekend outside Mena, Arkansas. Luckily a big logging truck came by with gust of wind. I don’t have that problem anymore. I bought my replacement today from partzilla for like $128.
RedRider Posted March 25, 2021 #3 Posted March 25, 2021 There is a center tab on the bottom of the trim. It can get worn or broken and no longer holds. Take and old keyboard key (or some other ABS plastic) and melt it onto where the tab should be. Shape it until it fits into the mating clip. RR
XV1100SE Posted March 26, 2021 #4 Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) In the read only section there is a write up on repairing the tabs on the chrome windscreen trim. I did it to mine and worked out better than new. Let me know if you can't find it and I'll post a link. Found it.... https://www.venturerider.org/forum/topic/85-repair-of-chrome-windshield-trim/?tab=comments#comment-305 Edited March 26, 2021 by XV1100SE 1
