Hi all,

I just found a small rubber part sitting in my back seat that I assume fell out of my roof during an opening/closing cycle. I've attached a few pictures of the piece here (with a picture of my key for scale). Its made of very soft, flexible rubber. Does anyone know where this piece comes from, and if its easy for me to replace? Has this happened to anyone else?

Any advice/feedback would be much appreciated! Thanks for your help!

If you have the rear windscreen, look at the bottom by the ends where the locking pins go.

Excellent, thanks! I'll take a look.

I almost always have my rear windscreen installed, but had a few guests in town recently so had taken it out, and assumed that the part had fallen in the back seat while I had the windscreen out. But maybe it fell out when I was replacing the windscreen a few days ago. I'd much rather it fell out from that than out of the actual roof!

I'm confused.... .... can you take out your rear screen?
Why and how?

Thanks

LOL, he means the wind break thingy!

they popped off my windbreak as well last year, caused me much puzzlement when I found them on the back seat.

I see that now, I'm a plonker.

Thanks guys. The rubber part has been sitting in my glove compartment for the last 4 months as I had no idea where it had come from. Thanks to you it has now been reattached to its rightful location!

Brilliant - Thanks. I just saw this forum, decided to have a look and lo! you have answered a query for me immediately. I had exactly the same - found thsi rubber piece on the back seat of the car after taking delivery with no idea of where it came from! Mystery solved !!
