I will contact John Schmidt methinks for a new set of rubber seals for the back windows too and take it from there, with time, and patience and a swear jar :D

I used ones from Karcraft.

Your hands are sore after the job i can tell you :shock: , but when reinstalling the quarter window, be mindful of the plastic washers in the bottom pivot. They are there so you can tighten the window pivot and have some resistance. This resistance then holds the window open when you want fresh air in the car
