    Parts required for rear windshield replacement?

    Hey guys, my car is out of state getting painted, and I need to know what parts are required to replace the rear windshield. Car was damaged in an accident and pinched the rear windshield gasket. I know that there are two (or four?) L shaped corner pieces and a gasket. Is that all that is back there? Anybody have experience with the URO parts gasket? Thanks

    Always, always, always buy Genuine BMW when it comes to rubber seals.

    You need the (Genuine) gasket, the two-piece lock trim strip and the two corner cover pieces.

    This is for an early car with the "chrome" trim strips (from my spreadsheet):

    51311913888 weatherstrip, rear
    51311884409 chrome moulding, rear upper
    51311884410 chrome moulding, rear lower
    51311884408 chrome moulding joint, rear (2)

    Late cars have black trim strips (from RealOEM):

    51311972249 WEATHERSTRIP
    51311968447 MOULDING UPPER SCHWARZ
    51311968448 MOULDING LOWER SCHWARZ
    51311940279 Cup SCHWARZ

          While OE is the better option i had a URO gasket and a Oe gasket and could not tell the difference, but thats the only part I will use them for. It was a few years ago quality could have gone down.
