installing windscreen advice needed

Subject: installing windscreen advice needed
by a12dato120y on 2015/3/23 10:50:57

Hi I have just repainted my 120y and have got to put in the front and rear windows back in an was wandering if people could give me a few tips and tricks before i tackle it. I have researched abit and have watched videos of them using a rope to install it.

i have all new seals from thailand (sunpha brand) it seems fairly decent close to original just looking at it.

but i want to know do i need any sealant before installing the rubbers? I get some people telling me yes and some no. but i would prefer to use some as i dont want to remove it again if it leaks.

if i do use a sealant do i use that non drying butyl kinda stuff? the stuff that seems to stay tacky?

also do i first run a bead of it in the window channel then install the glass or install the glass to the car and fill the glue around the edges?

and last question do i install all my chrome strip into the rubber before or after installation to the car?

Thanks!
