Had to have the windshield replaced recently in my 2000 4Runner. Replacement glass (aftermarket) was scratched and glass shop happily agreed to do it over. "We should have noticed, unfortunately we get the odd one with a scratch". Rubber trim was also replaced (top and sides as one piece) but turned out very uneven. After checking out other 4Runners with original glass (PPG) it's obvious the trim isn't in correctly. Interestingly, two I've seen where windshields have been replaced suffer from the same uneven trim. Therefore, my question is, has any 4Runner owner had their windshield and trim replaced where the trim ended up flush to the body (across the entire top and corners)with consistent spacing throughout? Is this even achievable with a replacement? Is this a byproduct of not using a Toyota supplied windshield? Have yet to re-schedule the replacement of the replacement
