front window molding

I got close to zero experience on car stuff, so any advice is appreciated.

Problem:
Molding on the right side of the front window was falling off, and I got someone from repair shop to glue it back. back seems it wasn't glued tightly enough, and one day I realized it was gone.


My question:
1. is this part number correct for a 2012 TSX + tech, NH782M Acura: (73152-TL2-305ZK)

2. deal quote 450 or so for fix. online price is 161 or so. If I buy online, will repairshop be able to install it? or deal is preferred?

thanks again for reading this.

my side molding came loose (under warranty). The dealership just adds glue and tapes it down for like a weekend. I'm sure a repairshop can handle it.

I recently had this problem on driver's side. I used Goop Auto adhesive to install using attached TSB.

Note, if windshield is replaced the trim must be removed and tech may damage/destroy the trim due to adhesive. Adhesive is necessary to securely attach trim. Clips alone won't hold particularly under auto wash machines action.

Good Luck

My 2010 TSX A pillar molding was pulling back. I did a search on here and someone suggested filling the chamber with 3M Black Super Weatherstrip (#08008). I ordered it on Amazon for like $10.50. Filled it up and duck taped it down for about 15 hours. I did this about 2 months ago and it's still very solid. The A pillar modeling has been an issue with this car. Some got a recall..mine did not.
