yeah...I think Isuzu replaces the entire headlight units in regards to the weatherstripping seal to simply get you through the warranty period until it happens again and you are stuck with it. I simply used some GE clear Silicon RTV on mine and they seem perfectly fine. I would rather do this every few years (if necessary) than risk screwdriver scratches on body and cladding by a mechanic in his
effort to replace whole headlight units (that will, undoubtably, peel loose again!).

So far...simply silicon spraying the window tracks every 4/6 weeks seems to be working in regards to the windows working correctly. If you notice the window speed slightly slowing down or the window starting to go up at a less than perfect angle than its time to respray. Once my warranty is up I may pursue Phine's window fix...but, for now Silicon seems to work nicely and is a cheap fix.

I haven't had the hood insert problem. I'm assuming it is due to over-torquing at the factory?
