1. Remove lower rear channel

Whuts that?

There are others...



Can someone answer this? I just broke my window trying to get the vent window back in. Didn't see this post. Dummy me. I do have a replacement so I want to make sure I'm doing this right. I read through this post but didn't see anyone answer this question. Pictures always work the best. :)

The lower channel that I refer to is the one at the back of the window. Held in by 3 screws. One is located above the latch and 2 are side by side under the door panel at the rear of the door. You remove it along with the weatherstrip that starts at the top of the window openening and runs all the way around and down into the door into the "rear run channel"

Post a picture when I get it made.

Great write up. I just finished my doors this weekend. I'm looking forward to seeing that tool! The outside window wipe on my drivers door is not working properly. When I roll the window up most of it stays tucked down so I know I have to replace that one.
