I was able to slide one section of it in, but then it was in the way of itself to try to slide it into the next section. There are 2 gaps in the track on each side of the door toward the top of the window with a hole drilled in the middle of the gap. What are these there for? I'm assuming I'm supposed to put the rubber in all in one piece? Any help would be great

If you can't fix it with a hammer, it's an electrical problem

One tip is to take a small piece of the windlace and slide it thru the track, checking to making sure the track is not crimped/flatten out. You can spray some silicone or WD-40 on the rubber, or soapy water. It's a job, but once you get the hang of it, it gets easier. You'll have to push the rubber then pull the rubber thru the track. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 554 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 554 | A lot of people, myself included, are able to get one section slid in place as you describe but end up poking it into the channel with a blunted tool for most of the rest. I used a tool used to help install window glass. The curved sections are a little more difficult and most people seem to end up with a pucker in the rear corner.
