Okay, I surrender…..for now.
How in heck does this seal go in? I can see the outermost part has a slight bead on the rubber to secure it in the window frame channel. Does the inner portion go on the inside too? Or does it just lay over the chrome? Having a rough go. What's the secret? Thanks
The inner overlaps the chrome trim. The tough part is getting the forward vertical into the channel, start in the middle and work out to the ends, once you get it started it goes in quickly. If you don't get it in all the way the edge will catch on the door during opening.
Thanks, Ed. Any adhesive required?
Nope, not at all!
Lots of hot soapy water. Pre heat the gaskt in the sun. Go to a beautition supply house and buy some 'cuticle pushers". Have you done the vent wings yet? They are a whole new chapter in early window seals. Skeeters
Windex is a great help when doing this job,
it makes the rubber slide easier, but you can still grip it,
it dries and leaves no residue.
Thanks all for the good tips. With the aid of a heat gun I got one in, but ran out of inter tips. Tomorrow.
Yes, I did the front vents, also tricky.
Just front and rear glass to go, when my moldings are back.
Almost……..
I agree, Windex and an ice-cream stick worked for me.Quote:
