    Here is one I have never done before. replacing hardtop frame gl***.
    What glue or sealant is used or recommended?
    I just read there is tape to use. But they're a different thickness' ones so I will have to do Some measuring.

    I believe I will need the standard friction tape at the bottoms fronts. Any good places to get this?
    Thanks!
    Here a stock pic of the types of frames the gl*** is going into.

    If you have a auto gl*** shop local, go to them for the correct setting tape

    Give RubberTheRightWay a call. They're in San Diego. They'll send you 4-5 samples of different size gl*** setting tape so you can determine which one is right, then you can order a roll from them. I followed this YouTube video when I replaced all my side gl***. It's actually very easy to do.
