fitting glass

[faggie]

you can buy the tool cheaper than that mine was about £8 from autoglass when i worked there , pity you were not closer to me i could help you fit the windows , having the correct tool really makes the job dead easy , but if money is tight get a wooden clothes peg the one what is all wood no metal spring and snap one leg of it , dont use a screwdriver because if you slip your vans painwork will come of worst , then use wd to lubricate the split in your rubber seal make shure you try to get as much of the filling trim in the split as possible and dont stretch the filling strip , it also helps if you get a friend to use the tool to widen the slot as you try to push the finishing trim in , this is why if you have the correct tool it can easily be done by one person , without the tool its easier with 2 people then when you get all the way round the window try to force as much trim into the slot as if you just cut it of level when the warm weather arrives next summer hopefully if we get a summer the finishing trim will shrink and you will be left with a small gap if i can help more pm me and i will send you my tel no
