Scuttle panel fitment

[gcon45]

Just noticed that my scuttle panel isn't sitting flush to my windscreen tonight.

There is a slight gap where you can see the yellow retaining clips.

Shouldn't this be flush to the windscreen to deflect water?

That's the lower window moulding. The scuttle panel is the one below that again around the window motor and arms.

It should sit pretty tight, but as your panel was off in the past and the yellow retainers were not seated correctly [one missing, one upside down] the panel was offset. Its quite a light flimsy part too.

It doesnt really deflect water that much as it all runs into the scuttle moulding/Cowl, and drained from there.

Cheers.

Yeah it is quite flimsy, which is why I didn't want to fiddle with it too much!
