Installing new quarter window rubber on 69 912
 
I've been trying to install new OEM rubber on the quarter windows of my '69 coupe. The rubber is winning. Would appreciate any tips or a place to take it so it can be installed correctly. Thanks for the help

Use liquid soap and drench the rubber and the channel, I used a rubber mallut and carefully beat the rubber into the grooves, worked... a friend who owns a auto glass company gave me the tips.
good luck and be careful,
Chas. 69/912

Charles:

Thanks for the tip. Worked like a charm. Used a foamy brush to spread the soap, put the pointed end of the window in a bucket with a cloth to soften the impact of the mallet blows. Pressed the rubber flange over the inside chrome. This left the rubber slightly angled upwards towards the outside glass frame. Simply tapped the edge of the rubber into place. With the Soap it slid right in. Really appreciate the help.
