Update: I installed the new CP rubber last night. I'm getting pretty quick in the process now
. All the differences pictured above were in fact contributors in making the CP brand a better product. It snapped in well into the groove and stayed there and the window opens and closes as expected. Seeming a little thing to ask.
I'm having the door glass made today locally. I have the felts on order. Repops is owned by MontCo now and supplies Ecklers (also local), so I ordered them today too. I'll re-tint the glass before installing back into the door. Then I can move on the driver door and repeat. I have to replace the virtual "4th" door glass too after that.
Thanks for all the help. I can post some more pics later.
