Default installing anti rattle clips

I just ordered anti rattle clips for my 1982 vette
The drivers side window rattles when half way down
it looks pretty simple to install
correct me if im wrong but just a couple of screws to remove the door panels
them simply replace anything i should look out for ?

If you get stuck post a question for Ernie on Ask Willcox in the C3 General section, he or others will respond. An Assembly Manual is worth the investment along with taking pictures of everything you do. And bag and tag any parts you remove so you know where they are reinstalled. Sounds crazy on a little thing such as this until........it isn't.
Good luck.
