Hey guys,
I just wanted to find out what the plastic piece on the window trim is designed for. I took mine off and filled in the holes with some trim glue. It definitely made for a bit smoother look. Anyone out there do something similar?

I don't know if this would make much sence...
but I know that there are window visors made, I think that the wholes were made for people who wanted the visors... if not, they put that tab thing incase you changed your mind :0!!!
lol
Ne whom, that's my input..
Tabs = Filler For holes For Window Visors!

ive got 3 different sets of visors and none of them have tabs, now my jdm set for my 323 have tabs but i never looked at the car to see where they clip onto, both car and visors are sitting waiting to be worked on.

That piece is a window guide, in case your window gets loose. I've never heard of it being needed. I sanded mine shiny again, because it's turning grey. I designed my visors to bow out around it.
It's fine to cut it off. Just be sure to leave the part inside the track.

jesse's right that's what they are for... which is pretty ridiculous. when i got slim visors, i pulled out with pliers
