Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback

When it comes time to put the new glass in you will be glad you are using the original rubber seal. They fit better than the repo's and have already been trained to their needed shape.
It will almost fall in by itself.
Try not to feel rushed or get in a hurry when working with your new glass. That is when
bad things happen. Install the clean rubber on the new glass without any soap or sealant.
Insert the nylon cord into the groove of the seal where the metal goes. Start at the bottom center and leave enough of a tail (min 6") that you can get ahold of it above the dash pad.
It is best to overlap the ends of the tails a few inches and tape them to the inside of the glass
so they arnt in the way when setting the glass and rubber assembly into the frame.
Now slick up the lip of the rubber and the rope with your soap.
Position the glass centered in the opening checking all corners for equal gaps.
Then go inside and pull on one of the tails and watch the lip fold over the steel. Pull the cords
equally from both directions. This doesn't have to be done at the same time. Once the lip is over the steel across the bottom go back out and push the windshield down if needed to recenter
In opening. It can lift some as the ropes are pulled. Then go up the sides and around the top from one side to the other. You may have to keep a grip on the opposite tail to keep it from pulling thru.
