Not sure what it's called but I recently replaced one of mine. It's very easy to do but order the clips for it as well if you plan on changing yours.

clips
hi, thanks for the response, I found out today that there are several clips for this bracket, mine happened to be broken by the windscreen replacement person who decided to cover up his mistake with glue. but after a car wash this come apart from the windscreen. took it to the dealer who called the windscrren people in and they are going to replace all the brackets on both sides gratis

I suspect thats what had happened with mine. When I bought it I didn't notice anything wrong but after a couple of warm days I saw the strip had lifted at the bottom then realised it was held with black soft glue. The clips were only pennies

This also happened to mine after having the fix carried out for water ingress at a Volvo workshop. Frustrating but my more local dealer glued it back for free so will wait and see if it holds, went through a car wash yesterday with no issues. How much does the trim cost?

glue?
I dont think they are supposed to be glued, they have clips. if yours are glued this will probably eventually dissolve through washing and then you will have nothing to keep them in place. go to a dealer and buy some clips, they are quite cheap according to a comment above.
