I’ll be replacing rubber seals front & back… starting with the back, which is a sliding window type btw.

Do I put the rubber seal on the window first then install to the cab edge? Or, install the rubber seal on the cab edge first and then slide the glass in?

Another question is were to use window sealer? Do you run a bead of sealer inside the seal groove where the glass fits in? Or, to the groove that fits onto the cab edge?
I know to apply sealer to the top edges after it’s installed (front) but am obviously confused about everything else.

Also I could find the 3M Weather Strip Adheisive”, but I did buy Permatex “Auto Glass Sealer” – I’m OK with at?

I have my box knife in hand and am heading outside to cut the back window out…

As always ANY help, tips advice all aspects of these installs you guys give me is appreciated... and needed
