I'm getting there it really seems doable. Whose gaskets did you use?

The screws I'm talking about are not shown in the drawing. One would be about where the arrow with the "A" is only it is on the back edge of the door above the latch. The other two are at the bottom of that same channel. They may be under the door panel seal. (See arrows on pic below.)

If it is loose I would just use a little black silicone sealant on it.

I think he bought the complete wing window assemblies, not just the gaskets.

I don't remember really, it was a long time ago.
I just remember going through a lot of hassle, and not getting the finish product I was expecting. So I threw in the towel, saved my coins, and bought a new set of wings.

Good luck to you and your rebuild!
