The new seal sits better but the glass is still wrong and my rear view mirror is broken.

BLEEP BLEEP BLEEP BLEEP BLEEP BLEEP

I guess they're replacing the screen as well? Or just the seal?

Well, after five calls I eventually got a call back from a manager... mentioning the club, and the longstanding issues certainly helped!

He is ordering a Honda screen and seal ; to be fitted next week....we shall see
