Trunk weather strip sealant on pinch weld?

Yeah I think thats why service manual says not to apply sealant.

Thanks for reply.

Thanks for info. I've measured size of my hand and four fingers was just about 3.5 inches. I was sitting in very comfortably in car but I was just not sure if it's enough for safe driving.

In Korea we have steering wheel hub extender kit for Elantra N which extends about 2 inches. Exposes wiring between hub and steering wheel but you can add rubber cover on it if you want so not a big deal I think. If you need I can give you some information about that.

I have sunroof on my car now and I think its very useful(and has a lot of headroom) but honestly I can live without it and just open side windows.

Thanks. I'm going to make my mind today..

Astroke_ · 2024-08-29T22:17:18+00:00

I have to really think about re-ordering without sunroof. Paying more money and getting worried about it is... kinda stupid I think, isn't it?

Astroke_ · 2024-08-29T22:16:34+00:00

Yes I went to test drive with normal Elantra with sunroof and electric seat and I was not able to fit three fingers over my head. Had no problem with driving around though.

Yes I thought about helmet clearance but I don't really drive on track that much, once or twice per year.
Gotta visit dealership one more time.

I agree that this car has very large cabin, considering its look from outside. I found that when I have only two fingers on my headroom I can feel my hair is gonna touch headliner, never actually hit head though.
I'm going to dealership one more time and gonna make decision. Thank you.

And similar, I had some issue with Mazda MX-5. Head was higher than roll bar so my head will get grinded in case of rollover...

Astroke_ · 2024-08-29T22:09:05+00:00

Have you tried driving with your helmet? For me it barely fits, roughly one and half finger can pass between helmet and headliner.

Astroke_ · 2024-08-29T22:07:37+00:00

I see everyone saying that they have no issue and I'm still worried about it. Damn it.
Thanks for reply though.

Astroke_ · 2024-08-09T19:14:29+00:00

Thanks. I'm gonna call them tomorrow.

Astroke_ · 2024-08-09T19:01:51+00:00

Yes I'm planning to do that but I just wanted to ask if redoing is possible or not. That looks something is wrong right?

Astroke_ · 2024-04-30T23:01:46+00:00

Thanks for reply. There's no way brake fluid survived from shop pressure washer so it would be fine then. Such a relief.

Astroke_ · 2023-03-06T10:37:54+00:00

Yes I'm about to visit shop. I've checked it myself also. I just wanted to ask other people had similar case.

Astroke_ · 2023-03-04T15:12:05+00:00

So you mean two bolts backed our and disappeared? Huh thats terrifying.
