Installation Instructions

Step 1: Remove Old Weatherstrip

• Start by removing the door panels and mirror covers if equipped.
• Once you have access, remove any push pins or rivets securing the old weatherstrip in place.
• After those are removed, pull out and remove the weatherstrip.

Step 2: Install New Weatherstrip

• The weatherstrip is side-specific, so grab the correct side you are going to start working on.
• Start at the top section of the door and feed the weatherstrip in between the glass and C channel.
• Once started, feed the weatherstrip all the way to the bottom while making sure it is seated correctly.
• Seat and align the top of the weatherstrip to the door frame. Use the 3M adhesive to get any sections held in place as needed.
• Align the holes of the weatherstrip with those of the door and install the rivets or push pins.
• After everything is in place, test to make sure the window can roll up and down freely.
• Reinstall the mirror covers and door panels.
• After this, you are good to go!
