well, i'm not really sure. i still have the tape on the car but from what i can see there is still a small gap between the rubber seal and the glass. much smaller than before though, maybe a 1/16 of an inch, and it doesn't appear to run the entire length of the trim anymore

the problem may be that everything is frozen, so i'm wondering if the plastic is just so cold and hard that it can't settle back down. i'm going to wait and see how it is after a week or so. we haven't been above 30 for a few days and from the looks of the forcast it doesn't look like we will be for at least a week.

i'll be removing the tape tonight, wish me luck.

its ok, its a lot better than before. obviously not as tight as factory, but its acceptable. they replaced the seals again and its pretty much down on the window where it should be, not as tight as the factory fit but i guess this is as good as its gonna get. i think it may fit a little better once the car gets un-frozen.

now i need to call acura and get my one fog light replaced (has condensation in it) and figure out why all my console lights are dead (i can't win lately...)
