Hi all,
I'm fitting new 'DP51' glass run channels from Rick, but they are sooo tight in the channel on the back of the 1/4 windows*.
I've given the window channel and the weather strip a dose of silicon spray but it's so tight that it's peeling the rubber coating off the sides of the weather strip. I've wrecked one strip now, would like to know what I'm doing wrong before I wreck any more!
The window frame channel measures 12.5mm across internally, but the weather strip is a bit over 13.5.
Has anyone else had this issue?
Cheers,
Paul.
* Note - I've got them fitted into the lower front window channels fine, but they wont go into the upper chrome 1/4 window frames.
