Interior Door panel top window seal replacement ?
Any one have tips how to install replacement door panel window seal s ?
I have the panels off, and removed the old seal which is stapled thru the steel top header.
How do you install new seal ? I can't stable thru the steel top like the factory did ?
They used super heavy duty staples...

Make sure the replacement seals are exactly the same as ones coming out. The old felt/rubber strips compress and wear down. When you put new ones in they will be thicker and put more pressure on the glass. Windows can be tricky to realign as all the adjustments are interdependent. These seals and other weatherstripping after they set in for few months.
