Those West Coast Metric seals are sweet. Real great quality and easy install

@DubWerks 4 года назад

Yes they are! Way better than the Brazillian ones.

I'm a retired VW Mechanic and used to be able to knock out a windshield install in 1/2 hour . Now I can't get the dang trim into the rubber, I'm leery of silicone because once it seeps between the glass and rubber the rubber won't stay put, you need to wash all the silicone off before retrying again . I'm going to see of Harbor Freight has a nifty pre made 1/4" rope tool, if not I'll make one out of old steel fuel piping . I miss my young strong & flexible fingers =8-) . -Nate

I've restored over 100 beetles back in the 80's/90's and never had an issue with the trim. You fit the trim which puts the rubber in shape and then fit to the glass. A learning process and admire your dedication to learn.

@DubWerks 4 года назад

All I hear about the trim is it's a pain getting it in. Mostly people trying to push it into the seal and such. I don't know if they're using bad seals or what, using this way though, it was really easy. Thanks for checking out the vid!

@rsirls6246 11 месяцев назад

I'm trying your method and it's not working. Do you have a video of this?

@samuelbacon1596 4 года назад

Should be a video out next week!

@Mikefngarage 3 года назад

l ove the rope Idea but it does help to get the trim the same shape as the window though I usually bend them into shape then push them into the groove

@DubWerks 3 года назад

Yeah I did bend the rear window one a bit and it made it easier. I did try pushing it in, but the rope was way easier for me.

Thanks Zimm!

@davemcguigan218 4 года назад

I was hoping to see you install the window!

@DubWerks 4 года назад

I may in the next video, but there are a lot of videos showing it on youtube.

@raoulrojas7013 3 года назад

Mr. Werks, Your tutorial is very helpful, the easiest way to install the metal trim. I did use a plastic tool to guide and push in the cord into the groove. Also, I sprayed silicon lubricant into the groove. Question: Do you insert only the inner side of the metal trim into the groove? Thank you!

@DubWerks 3 года назад

Thanks Raoul! Yes, you are only supposed to put one side of the groove in. When the glass gets put in the car, it gets locked in.

@kevinhamling1963 4 года назад

Hey man Kevin here from Australia. That was a good how to video well done . Are you going to show installing the window in your next video as there is stuff all on RU-vid that actually shows a window being installed. Anyhoo stay safe and stay well. Looking forward to seeing what happens next. ✌ Peace man.

@DubWerks 4 года назад

Thanks Kevin. I don't know if I'll show installing them, like you said there are a lot of videos on it.

the best part about amazon if you buy ANYTHING after using your link you still get paid a commission.

@DubWerks 3 года назад

@michaelmeier7097 3 года назад

instead of blind cord have you tried weed wacker line?

@DubWerks 3 года назад

I was originally going to use that, but went with the cord. I guess it would be possible, but I’m not sure.

@allanj.garcia5480 2 года назад

Is it possible to install the trims with the Brazilian seal?

@DubWerks 2 года назад

I suppose it could be done, however I feel the German/ WCM seals are a superior quality. As long as the seal has the trim channel, you SHOULD be able to do it.

@thekindergartenteacherguy3906 3 года назад

Newbie question: I spent a lot of time yesterday and had little success. Ugh... In the video, maybe I have the chrome backwards. It looks like the grooves of the trim face INSIDE toward the glass you went around, correct? I think I had mine facing out.

@DubWerks 3 года назад

Yeah so the trim is shaped like a U channel. You want to take one leg of the U and press it into the seal. The other leg stays out and makes it look finished. Once you install the glass into the car, the rubber seal pinches around the trim and holds it in place. Hope that explained it better!

@rsirls6246 11 месяцев назад

I've been trying to get this window in for several days. I'm extremely frustrated. Can't get the trim on without the rubber coming off. Your video is cut off at the bottom during the beginning of installing the trim. What in the heck am I missing? How do I get this stupid on?
