    what window trim piece am i missing?

    my windows look like this:





    i *think* i need part #1 from http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E3...exterior_trim/ :



    can someone confirm? also, if i got this piece, would it eliminate (or at least reduce) the wind noise that i get at highway speeds?

    thanks for your help.

    Are both of your sides missing it?

    And yes, looks like #1...

      thanks. yes, both sides are missing.

      so looking at the diagram, it looks like parts #4, 12, and 21 are the shadowline pieces?

        I had my drivers gutter trim literally go airborne on me on the highway a few
        years ago. It started off as a metal vibration sound and then...it went away...

        Only to find when I arrived at home it was no longer in existance.

              Definitely #1 on the diagram. Make sure it has clamps (#13) or you get some. It won't hold on the body otherwise.
