You can cut the old seal to get it out, use a box cutter or something like that (and be *very* careful). For putting the new one in, just use some nylon cord, and some petroleum jelly or KY-jelly. The water-based stuff like KY is pretty easy to clean up. And yes, I'm still talking about putting a window in :mrgreen:

Let me know, I can help. I took mine out with seal and all when I did my car years back and used the same seals when I put them back in. Being a holiday week I think this week is shot. But anytime next week would be good for me.

We can plan it, let me know
