Default Windshield leaks

My 1990 F150 has a water leak along the top drivers side.

What it does it cost to have this repaired? Windshield and trim appear to be in good shape. I am usually a DIYer, but would rather have a pro do this.

cheap easy fix is pull off the trim and get some RTV that you use in a caulk gun.

in my experience you'll want the glass removed and the rust in the channel taken care of(if there is any). Then new caulking and a seal. Looking at $200 tops.

I only paid $100 for a used windshield installed, at the junkyard.
