Stock Window from the interior
Tapped my black gasket insert in per SOR instructions. Most will probably have the chrome ones.
Interior stock corner gasket
Added a few extra tools to the install list (bike tire levers, visit Oro Valley Bikes if you're in Tucson), We went around the whole window, seemed to help some and felt better about using the plastic levers than a screw driver.
Help from a big screw driver.
We got the corner out first.
It's popped out now.
Tapped the headliner down with duck tape. The first side we did kept getting it caught with the rope as we pulled it around the window to seal it.
You can see how curved the pinch weld is. You'll need to straighten that out. (click the img it would rotate it on the link)
After alot of pounding you get it straight. Instructions say to use a 2x4...no sure how that big of piece of wood could be used in such a small area, I opted to something smaller.
SOR instructions say to start at the bottom as you over lap the string there, we did that once or twice and then opted to try starting from the top. That seemed to work for us better. No pics of that, as it goes pretty quick and the window is slippery for the soapy water (again per SOR instructions).
it might look like the gasket isn't even, but it is. When i had repainted some overspray got on the window gasket seals, so it just looks wavy, but to everyones surprise they went really good.
The Tools, (not in picture is the bike tire levers), also help to soak the rope in the soapy water
Any questions?
BTW- the wife says this was my fastest part install in Land Cruiser ownership history. I almost didn't wanna tell her I was done 'cause I had blocked the whole day for "cruiser time."
