Installation

The instructions I have on putting the windshield and rear
window in is to put the rubber on the windshield with the sealer in the
grove and then take a small nylon rope and put it in the grove that
fits on the car. Have someone put pressure on the outside and with one
end of the rope sticking inside the car start pulling on the rope from
inside the car. Don't forget to put sealer in both groves should be a
clear sealer, Permatex makes a good one.

Old school glass installation...before nylon...when all the
sky was dark...twine was used...and was continued to be used by Ma
Mopar. Never wasted any existing stock...even had her boys roll up
their kite twine. See your shop manual...always a handy little
reference ... 1967 edition...Body frame section...23/67...there are
Charger specific instructions.

Rubber on the glass, start at the bottom. Have a bud apply a
constant pressure to the outside of the glass while someone inside
works the rubber flap over the body flange a little at a time, working
both sides up to the top. I used butyl rubber glass sealer in the glass
groove of the gasket before putting it on the window. I put some of
that soft "press in place" 3M black sealing strips in the body groove
of the gasket before installing it. Big tricks are, must be warm so
gasket will flex nicely, and all the fiberglass panels must be out of
the interior around the window. I used the original gasket in this with
no leaks at all.
