Windows.......

[RICH-I-AM]

..... more to the point,rubbers.
Right, ive got a 1970 Bay deluxe that had the ally trim in the window rubbers.Ive had to take all the windows out for repairs and unfortunately the cracked old rubbers didnt make it :mrgreen: .
Ive baught a full set of deluxe window rubbers from C&C and seem to be realy good quality rubber.
The trim they sell isnt like the old ally its plastic stuff on a reel :shock: .
My question is, does the chrome strip go in the window rubbers before or after the glass is fitted :?:
Got rear(Side) opening 1/4 windows fitted as well.Dont know weather that makes any difference?

Thanks for any info

Rich :mrgreen:

Trim after window in, you may need the tool to fit the trim heritage sell them.

fit before to avoid lots of swearing...getting the rubber in itself is a right royal pain in the backside and may take up to four people if the rubber is kak. On another level i`ve been breaking some deluxes just recently and have og window trim if your intrested. :wink:

I do it before if I have to fit them.

Plain rubber is a lot easier

When i fitted new rubbers i fitted the trim afterwards.
Dont know if it would of made any difference either way to be honest

 

[slammedkustom]

you could always fit standard rubber and then carefully go round each one with a silver marker
it might just work :lol:
