In this Video! I found a better way to install VENT WINDOW Seals for the 1952 - 1964 VW Beetle. This technique can save you a lot time!
I do apologize for the shaky camera as I had the GoPro on my head.

Great Video. Love the GoPro on head !! VERY instructional

@taddbitofvideos3974 3 года назад

I did mine just that way on my 64. But I used Dow silicon grease. Rub a very very thin film on channel and seal. It was like nothing to put it in. I did my hood and deck seal the same way.

@classicvwbugs 3 года назад

Awesome

@johnfreeman1189 3 года назад

Valuable information, thanks for the tip.

@dubworldvwadventures 3 года назад

Great tip! That’s how I always do it! But I arch the end by the chrome channel post and install that end first. I don’t do many restorations though. One of my least favorite jobs!

It is tough to do doors sometimes, sometimes takes me one full day to do one door.

@islandrc-duke1972 3 года назад

nice window seal install

@calgaryguru 3 года назад

No, do NOT use a microwave to warm up the rubber. A microwave heats up food by vibrating the water molecules present in the food. Your rubber seal does NOT contain water molecules. If left in a microwave to try and warm it up, you are likely damaging the molecules of the rubber compounds.

@classicvwbugs 3 года назад

I agree, I have never done it, but some folks told me they have. I usually use the sun or a heat gun.

@wesleyalan9179 3 года назад

I have to do this soon

@frielocity6286 3 года назад

The cappuccino was a nice touch,..but no VW logo in the foam? Maybe a copyright infringement. What brand seals are you using, I like the silicon tip, always helps.

@classicvwbugs 3 года назад

Cip1 or wolfsburgwest

@devitafilms6455 3 года назад

A cappuccino in a bug shop. What more can you ask for?

@classicvwbugs 3 года назад

Haha, thanks!

@RogerVandevert Год назад

❤ It WAS a Cappuccino..but when it got stirred..it became a Latte. A cappuccino is 1 part espresso, 1 part steamed milk, 1 part foamed milk that forms the "CAP". Dash of cinnamon on the foam ❤😊

You are a master Cappuccino magician

@jorgegallo3261 3 года назад

My new seal made the little window hard to turn. Tried lubricant, no result. Any suggestions?

@classicvwbugs 3 года назад

its not the seal that does that, there is a clamp in the door that you have to loosen.

@jorgegallo3261 3 года назад

@@classicvwbugs Thanks, Chris!

@melisaward9402 3 года назад

Thanks! Need to rebuild the components on my '59. Is that a "dry" silicone you're using? Will the same thing work to keep the rubber from sticking as the main window goes up/down?

@classicvwbugs 3 года назад

No it is a wet silicone! And yes you can use some silicone or baby powder for the window scrapers.

Will this work on a 67 beetle. Thanks for the video.

@classicvwbugs 3 года назад

Actually this is much harder on these years. For 67 they install into the removable vent frame. I have a vid on that.

Chris, great tip. BTW; who’s rubber seals would you recommend I.e. WW or WCM ?

Either one is good

@okolemahu 6 месяцев назад

Do you really think they wrestled with every vent window seal in the factory like you did? I really doubt it.

@classicvwbugs 6 месяцев назад

This was a faster way from what I used to do before, but if you have a better way, show us. And yes it was done in seconds in the factory.

@okolemahu 6 месяцев назад

@@classicvwbugs no I don’t have a better way because I haven’t had a bug since the 70’s. I was just making an observation. No disrespect, keep up the good work.
