Several people have mentioned what to do with the discolored trim pieces in
the windows. My mechanic also suggested pulling it out, but I was afraid the
front one would leak more than it does now.  Painting worked very nicely on
my 87 Syncro GL.  I used a semi-gloss black, that was sold by AutoZone as an
automotive "trim paint". Masking is a bit tedious, you sort of have to mask
off the world.  I would not recommend using a flat paint, as it can turn
white if it comes in contact with wax, and it is difficult to get the wax
off.
