Instructions:
- Lower the window to a position where the run channel can be accessed (usually partially down).
- Remove the door trim panel: detach screws, pry out clips with a trim tool, and disconnect any electrical connectors or door handle linkages as needed.
- Remove any inner weatherstrip or sash pieces that block access to the channel. Use masking tape to hold the glass in place if necessary.
- Carefully pull or pry out the old glass run channel from the door frame. Note fastener locations and retain any clips or hardware to reuse if in good condition.
- Clean the channel area and track inside the door of dirt, old adhesive and debris. Wipe dry with a shop rag.
- Lightly lubricate the new run channel with rubber-safe lubricant or soapy water to aid installation and glass movement.
- Position the new run channel into the door frame, aligning it with any factory clips or screw holes. Work it into place evenly along its length.
- Lower the glass into the new channel, confirm smooth travel and proper alignment, and adjust as needed.
- Reinstall any removed sash pieces, weatherstrip, and the door panel. Reconnect linkages and electrical connectors.
- Test the window operation several times to ensure the seal is correct and there is no binding before finishing.
