    Ok when I put my gl*** in, should I have the lock strip in the rubber molding
    or does the lock strip go in after the gl*** and rubber are seated in the car?

    Yeah it looks that way to me also, but its hard to keep the rubber on the gl*** at first.
    it just falls off so easy and won't hold at all on the corners.
    I got some tight corners.
    I was going to lock it on the gl*** first than hold it in place and do the string thing.

    Hi, Jdee! Long time.....
    Try using masking tape to keep the rubber on the gl*** until it's installed. But sometimes it's a wrestling match no matter what you do! Lock strip does just that...locks it in after everything's in place.

    Yep my novice knowledge level wiht this stuff agrees with above, thats the way Ive done it (read my friend has) Now Im just getting to the level where Im competent enough to help!

    Rubber goes in the channel, cut to fit, then half at a time gl*** (referencing V windshield on a Merc or Ford) then after that wrestling match with 895 trips over to the gl*** grinder, the lock strip goes in then.

    Good luck!
