side glass issues
I have decided to order my side glass from Wilcox. No brainer. Besides the anti-rattle bumpers, what else should I be looking at replacing in the window swap? Also, any suggestion on not scratching the window during the install? I was thinking about a heavy plastic film that I could remove after the install.
thanks for all of you input!

I would also get the window track repair kit when you're in there
track repair (check for your year)
and the outer door reveal molding (black seal on the outside running along the length of the door), but couldn't find it on the Willcox site.
Also clean & grease up the latch mechanism while the door panel is off.
I just taped the metal inner door panel at the top so the pointy bits are gone with painter's tape, no issues with scratches on the glass during install there's adequate space. A helper is a +
