: insulation between dash & windshield?

Hi. My husband and I just bought an '06 and love it. I noticed that between the dashboard and the windshield there seems to be what appears to be insulation, or foam, or something poking out. Does anyone know what that is and is it o.k. just to push it down?
Thanks for the info. I truly appreciate this forum.

WELCOME!!

Use something nonmetal to do it. Maybe one of those flat sturrers from coffee or a plastic knife from one of the fast food places. That way you won't cause a short.

BE GENTLE.

Thank you, I'll try that. Is this common?

I just pushed it back in place with a 3 inch plastic putty knife. Real easy. took about 30 seconds. looks much better.
