    Finally got the door windows in. I've been wanting these in for a long time now. I started with the drivers side and it just fell together and worked perfect, took about an hour start to finish. I thought great now I have experience and the passenger window is going to go better. Wrong wrong wrong. I bet I fought that thing for 3 hours start to finish, I don't know what was different but I was less than happy by the time we got it in. I have Altman bear claw latches and the window channel runs to close to the latch and would hang it up with the window rolled down. I had to shim that out a bit but other than that and fighting the passenger side it went well. Anyone have a good way to attach the felt strip back on the surround trim. They used some metal stapler but I was going to look for some very small screws.
