Fitting Glass

Keith recently posted regarding problems fitting the rear window in his Mini.

When fitting my glass I put the seal around the window opening first.
Then inserted the glass into the seal using lots of glass cleaner liquid as a lubricant.
A few plastic spatulas came in handy at this stage.
Finally getting the chrome strip into the seal in order to firm it all up.

I only used the string method on the quarter windows.

I hope this is of benefit and maybe give it another try.

Patience is the trick. Useful post.

I've watched Ray Cunningham in Galway Mini Centre do it in minutes. Practice obviously makes perfect.
