We have bought the rubber seals for all the windows. Does anyone have any suggestions on the easiest way to go about installing them a few have two pieces and others have one piece. Thanks

George, here is a link to a page on Jim Bound's site that gives instructions.

The best way to do it is rope one of your friends into doing it for you, like I did. I found it really tough to get the rubber strips into place using my thumbs, but my friend, who already did one set was really good at it. All of mine were one piece as best as I can recall.

What year is your coach? The windows changed in 1975 and the rubber seals are different... different ways of installing.

I did my 1973 quite a few years ago... I have forgotten almost everything about it except following Jim B's printed instructions.

The heading on this webpage is "Lets replace late style window rubbers!" so it may not apply if you have a 73 or 74.
