[QUOTE="speedbuggyseb, post: 271980, member: 14893"] Ok, right we arrived down at Pauls at about 7.30 in the evening, had a quick catchup and chat for half an hour and then got straight down to work. Due to the fact that our window rubbers were all so fossilized there was no point in even to trying to get them out in the regular way by popping the glass out. We just grabbed a very sharp and retractable (its safer) new stanley knife and blade and started to cut the rubber. We began with the rear hatch window, as this was the first window that we could actually get out and hopefully get the new replacement in as soon as possible, with no delays or missing links in the chain of what needed to happen. (All of the other windows required a lot more work as either the headliner needed to fit first or the sliding door needed removing or something like that. We were extremely careful at this point as it is very easy to slip and either scratch the van boot lid or cut yourself to bits. Luckily we did neither and after about half hour the window came free [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v229/speedbuggyseb/Bay%20Deluxe%201969/ddd1fa4f.jpg[/img] [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v229/speedbuggyseb/Bay%20Deluxe%201969/66a3d438.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
