I need to replace the rubber seal on the side windows and I think it's called a "rattle kit". It's rubber on the outside of window and felt on the inside. Anyway the question is what does it take to remove the old ones? Do I have to remove the window or does it roll down enough to take the old ones out. Do I need a special tool? Are there better kits than others. I have seen one lit that says it is "beaded" whatever that means. Thanks for any info. Randy
