Cut off or repair rubber seal?

[sonic99]

Is there a way to repair this bit of rubber that’s coming off? Or is it beat I just snip off the excess?

Could try dabbing super glue on and holding down one spot at a time, at least 30seconds. Slowly work your way up

Generally window seals are made from EDPM rubber, so regular cyanocrylates (super glue) won't give a strong bond. They might work initially but will pop off again. For a permanent bond you need a high strength cyanoacrylate that has been specially formulated for bonding natural rubbers, like Permabond 105 or ASI RP.

Thank you!

 

If I didn’t want to do it myself, who would I go to for this type of work? I’ve tried windscreen places including o’Brian but no luck.

O briens should be able to remove the windscreen and replace the seals but you'll probably need to source the parts yourself. There are 3 separate rubber seals for the front and rear windscreens which need replacing and will cost roughly $300 per windscreen if you go genuine nissan parts
