I had the same problem

basically the bottom trim of the window surround came unstuck. No matter what I did it kept pulling away. I got a quote for this part, cam in at around 100 GBP. Got the same part from a breaker's yard for 7 GBP. To be honest I think the second hand part looks better as it is as worn as the rest so doesn't stand out, also really easy to replace. Push up the old bit until it falls off. Just make sure that if you get one by post that they make sure it can't bend as these are really soft.
Also check that the rubber seals between the window components are in place correctly. This turned out to be what made the really irritating whistle on my car. These can be coaxed back into place using a very small flathead screwdriver. To be honest, on this kind of job you are better using second hand bits as new ones cost lots and you may find you need to replace more than one or two pieces.
Hope this helps.
