got a question for ya, how is the rear window suppose to be held into place? The previous guy who owned it installed it himself and used silcon to hold it in place, as did the front windshield. What seals would i be needing? Also it appears that there is this strip of a rubber seal lining the bottom inside part of frame, should it be there, should it be replaced...?

And be sure to use 1/4" butyl tape. I bought 3/8" tape figuring it was "close enough". When I pushed the rear window into place, the tape was too thick for the glass to get a seal against the rubber strip on the engine lid. There was about a 1/16" gap there (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) . There's never enough time to do it right, but there's always enough time to do it over. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)
