Re: PO has me PO'd
I like to tape every couple inches, making sure the back of channel stays engaged, thats where the tape helps
Catching the channel pry down and push up on the tool, you'll see when you actually do it Headlamp really helps to see Don't let it out of your sight ![]()

Re: PO has me PO'd
Ok stop at this point, and get the gasket over the L bracket
Helps to tape lower channel to avoid pulling gasket out of channel ![]()

Re: PO has me PO'd
I thought that is what it used to be called, had little specals of turquoise in it
Now krypton calls it stone course texture, obsidian Have to check how strong it bonds to the metal, seems pretty good after drying for 2 days, have use the putty knife test

Re: PO has me PO'd
Got the last 8 inches of the gasket installed, seems like Widex and pry tool best suited for the job
Seemed like method would replicate installing spline on screen door, but it didn't prove out to be any guicker then the pry bar, but but the finish on the frame failed, might have to go with plating ![]()

Re: PO has me PO'd
![]() The post on the right is a 5/16×24 Still trying to figure out the left post They are symmetrical, meaning driver side to passenger side, if you remove latch handle and insert from other side of the glass

Re: PO has me PO'd
Total frustration over the last 3 days
Can't get the vent window to mount up to the. Frame and gasket ![]() Only thing I can come up with is the angle of the mounting post The second window seems to fit better but not perfect
