Just make sure you have a shop to fall back on... I removed the rear hatch
window to do touch up paint..
went to re-install... NO GO!

 I used a new window seal that my local shop would have used (but ordered
through them would have cost allot more).

It took 4 guys to put it back in, come to find out original VW glass is
notoriously tight fitting. These guys are experienced and reputable too. I
see at least 5 type 2s and Vanagons in their shop a week.
