Weatherstrip gap

Hello TW,


I took my 2018 OR to my local dealer last week to have one of the roof weatherstrips replaced after noticing that it came loose and was flapping around. The dealership agreed and ordered the part. It has been raining in my area these last couple of days and so I barely get around to seeing the replaced part this morning but now, I noticed that there is a gap where the two pieces of weatherstrip connect on the roof. I don't recall this gap before taking it but now it's on both sides of the roof. Is this normal? Thought I'd ask the community here for input.

 

May be particular to 3rd gens. My 2nd gen has one piece strips from front to back.

 

Mine looks like yours, maybe slightly tighter

 

That looks about right on the gap I used to have. My weather strip is all cut to pieces and fit back in because of my Access Cab rack install. shouldn't cause you any issues.

 

Thanks folks.

 

Hmmm, mine is one piece.

 

Mine has that gap too...I wedged a thin piece of rubber in the gap worried that there are holes under the trim...I don't think there are though??

 

take it to a auto carwash with blower and blows out 3m sticky tape fix they say still sucks for the money ya spend
