In the never ending quest to seal leaks,I bought the Toll window seals and
been trying to install them. Having a heck of a time. Anybody who has done
this have any helpful hints / resources to make this work. I bought the
felt/channel seals from Applied GMC.
Also, thinking of removing the driver / passenger window frame assembly
completely to seal the forward channel that the whole side frame fits into.
Has anyone found this area to be a source of leaks ?
Thanks

I did mine last summer and pretty much did what Emery said… Moving the bottom felt into place took several iterations and some creative pulling. I cut the slits in the new rubber to match the drains in the window channels.
In the end - I found it much easier than I expected. It was tight enough that I didn't glue it in place - even though I had the adhesive left over from a previous project.
The end result was a nice, tight seal and no window rattles!

Repeat sliding the felt and the window forward. Once the felt is all the way forward you can trim it to fit. Then cut and fit the front piece.
