The rubber trim at the base of all four of the windows on our 1999 S80
are trashed. Can these easily be replaced or does it require a visit to
the body shop? I'm wondering if it was just a bad batch of rubber since
all four of them got messed up.

Thanks! Susan

are they missing part of the rubber, rendering
them no longer a straight line? where the rubber
meets the glass?

susan...i see that occuring on my 2000 s80...i have not
looked into replacing, as it looks to be a "wear item" ...
from the windows going up and down.....you might try
posting a question to the s80 discussion group over
@ www.volvospy.com ... someone might be able to tell
you abour replacement/fix or prevention .... some of the
folks that read the threads work at volvo and in service
depts .....
