Default Can anyone identify this part?

There is a piece of strip of black plastic that is between the rear passenger window and the very back window. It is cracked on you DII and I would like to replace it but I cannot find it because I have no idea what its called. Anyone have any idea? Where may I look to find one other than salvage?

Thanks!

'C' pillar exterior trim. I need to find a way to epoxy mine because the upper mounting tab has somehow broken.

Hah! There are so many interpretations of that comment, just like "Eats, shoots and leaves"

(Here's what always happens at my two nearby JLR dealers: free coffee, nice AC running in the spotless showroom, check out a Jag with the auto-hiding AC vents that will fail in 2 years, never a line at the parts counter, but each attempt at negotiating a parts price results in a 50% discount until they tell me they really don't have it in stock after all, then get another free coffee, get a wiff of the new RR leather, and just go home to order online)

So the coffee is free right?

I love walking into the LR showroom dressed in my professional duds (I'm an accountant) and see the salespeople get all excited about a potential victim, then see their faces drop when I tell them I'm picking up a part - it's like someone farted right in their face

Re the part, epoxy is not going to hold it if it is the tab that the steel clip grabs, you need a new part or just live with it.

Bundu, this is the black plastic trim directly behind the 2nd row door, the 'C' pillar. It appears to be bolted on and the bolt holes are covered on the inside with what appears to be a round piece of black duct tape. I already have the 'D' panels removed from doing my headliner, so 2 of the 3 bolts are accessible.

"Want is the mistress of invention." I will find a way to fix the upper bolt attachment.

If you were talking about the 'A' pillar trims, I have found that out: I tried epoxy on the driver's trim for the top clip, and am now just living with it.
