I've installed several in the mostly distant past, but a couple in the last few years, but I'm having a difficult time with the one for my current '57 Nomad, and looking for 'more' good tips on the do's and don't's.. RD: Did you watch their process and learn anything?
Q. Did they use any sort of sealer on either the body or the seal where it envelops the pinchweld? OR anything in the seal where it engages the glass or the trim?
Did you learn any tips/tricks that you could pass along? The next time I try my install, it's either going IN, or it's going to be in pieces! :)
I did watch them work on it, and tried to respect their trade by not seeking too much info. But after watching the process of them getting the orientation of the seal correct, and installing the upper trim I decided it wasn't something I ever wanted to know how to do. Installation was much cheaper than the glass, plus it was super easy to just watch them do it. Didn't want to watch when they get to the point of banging it into place, so I went outside for 10 minutes, and when the beating was done I came back in and it was finished. They did use sealer just between the seal, and the glass on the outside only.
