Replacing the rear side windows channel strip is a fiddly job. It's getting it fixed with those little screws. I ran out of sweaty words
Problem with a glazed one is rust. You cant paint behind the channels.
I know but for the cost of them, I'm happy enough to just replace them again in a few years. I'd expect to get at least 3 years out of em.
Yea, seem to be more of a consumable these days and not expensive.
Finally got the glass in and the door top back on the landy. Never again! I've done the channels in the past fiddly but doable. Had to put aluminium shims in to correct the larger aperture, don't know why its bigger. Made a mistake in using the Series Club plastic channel - impossible to countersink for the screw heads as the gap is to small to get a drill in. Struggle to even get a Phillips head screwdriver in. Plastic brittle. Ended up relying on sikaflex mastic plus the odd screw. That's the passenger door done, I'll be ordering the driver's side this week - fully glazed!
I would love Wolf door tops, I think both glass panals slide on them don't they? Too expensive though, the wife would have a fit. Plus, I'd rather spend the money on a turner head or professional under seal.
