I have the butyl tape, trim clips and rubber trim, all from 914 Rubber. The aluminum trim, which is black, has been refurbished. Where the glass sets has been cleaned, sanded and primered. I have an expert coming to help me but I cannot see how the rubber trim works. Are the aluminum trim and the rubber trim mutually exclusive? I don’t remember taking off any rubber when the window was removed and the rubber along the bottom of where the window rests seems different. Help.

A little expensive... I've got to do both front and rear windows. Tap your back glass. Probably its loose. When I tapped mine, the window actually moved! Its ready to FALL out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) My one of my side windows pulled out of its rubber mounting strip in the regulator. All of the rubber in anything 50 years old is suspect... I'm planning on using the urethane window weld to redo both sides. So, I am prone to use the new stuff as well, just not for the front or rear glass. |
