My driver's side door glass separated from the vertical channel it slides up and down in. I think the new scraper seals I installed where causing too much friction.
Has this happened to anyone else? What's the best adhesive to use to re-glue it? Thanks! |

I used windshield Urethane to glue mine back in place. That stuff is REALLY strong. Looks like the 3M stuff mentioned above is the same stuff.
I believe Mark S. (mskala) is thinking of the 'WindoWeld' that comes in a roll (butyl) which is thick and wouldn't work at all for this. The stuff above (urethane) is really gooey and thin when you first goop it on. It gets everywhere. Wear gloves and don't wipe it on anything. Don't worry about excess getting on the glass or squeezing out. You can trim it up with a razor blade later. |

Cool; if it's thin then that should do the trick. When I get around to mine I will try it too. |
