Side Window channels

[RodnRudy]

I'm needing to replace the side window channels and anti rattle strips on my doors. My question is,can this be accomplished without disassembling the door mechanisms? Are the channels attached to the vent wing channel riveted on? This might turn into a winter project if I have to strip them down, having too much fun driving the old girl now.

You pretty much have to remove the wing windows to replace the felt channel. I won't say that you can't get the old out but it wouldn't be a lot of fun. The sweeps and felt strips can be replaced with the windows in.

Thanks, Loc Doc, I was afraid of that, winter project it will be.
