F model interior window plastic

[W6k]

The interior window plastic edges ride up against the window. It seems to me that some sort of edge protection would be a good addition. A small rubber U shaped rould bead that would press fit over the edge all the way around would look better IMHO. My parts manual does not show anything so I guess Mooney never supplied any trim piece. Is there anything available that might work? Maybe I am the only one that cares! I'm always looking for ways to improve things.

Are you talking about the window trim that sits on top of the glass or you talking about a bead on the glass where it contacts the airframe?

My 1975 F had a U piece on the window trim. It was replaced with a more flexible version that Bruce Jaeger provided when he did my interior.

This is what the original trim piece looked like:




You can see the new U trim piece on the door frame in this picture. This what you are talking about?

I am in the middle of redoing all my interior now and used this for a lot of the trim. I will prob be 66’ in all said and done.

I found that this specific Locktite gel is key when installing this on the trim.

Jaeger Aviation sells it for $2.00/foot. Give them a call, they have tan or grey.

How much do you need?  I have a bunch of the tan color I bought from Bruce Jaeger but never used.   Perhaps I can recoup some money and you can get a deal.

Check with Jaeger/Wisconsin Aviation. Bruce Jaeger sold me some really nice silicone material that is very flexible, beige color, and has a larger flap on the backside making it easy to adhere with a little clear RTV. https://www.jaegeraviation.com
