Inside the cab? When I did my back window, the instructions said to put the rubber on the glass and then use a rope to pull the rubber onto the cab frame.... which is what I did. I thought the bead lock went on the OUTSIDE. Did I screw up? Oh, I didn't use any sealant either. I don't think this kind of seal was ever intended to have sealant put on them back in the day. Mike
