I didn't find anything on the search but I'm sure it has been answered before.
I pulled the rubber out of the chrome track at the rear of my driver side window. I can't get it back in without messing it up. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Does in slide in from one end or do you have to compress it to get it back in the track? I even tried using some soap to lube it up. Any tips or tricks would be appreciated. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Alright here is the answer to my question (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) if you need to squeeze 40 year old rubber back into its channel use a window screen roller. It worked perfectly. No lube or blunt object needed. Once you get the right angle and pressure it zipped it right in with one continuous pass. Simple. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) I knew there was a trick! Thanks toadman yougot me the right track with wall paper seamer technique.
