<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV>Well my brother and tried and failed to get the vent window seal in my 88 vanagon.&nbsp; So I took to our local VW guy and $75 later I was no further along.&nbsp; Basically I paid him to do what my brother and I had already tried (but I do know he did spent some serious time with it, he was just going at in the wrong way).&nbsp; The problem was that he had never done one of these before.&nbsp; I'm leaving on a road trip&nbsp;to frigid temperatures tomorrow so I would kinda like to get this fixed before i leave.&nbsp;&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>My questions are:</DIV>
<DIV>Do you have to remove all the front glass&nbsp;to get the&nbsp;vent seal in?</DIV>
<DIV>Are there rivets that have to be removed?</DIV>
<DIV>Can you squeeze it around the the metal frame or does that frame need to be taken out?</DIV>
<DIV>Does anybody know of anybody in San Diego county who can do this?&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Thanks in advance for anymore advice.</DIV>

<DIV>ps I have already taken out the old seal (D'oh D'oh D'oh) so all the smart things I should have done to stop the whistling&nbsp; (ie silcone, tightening the torques acrew, etc.) can nol longer be done.&nbsp;&nbsp;I stress to everyone on the list.&nbsp; Do not&nbsp;temove the vent seal in a late model vanagon unless it is totally neccessary.&nbsp;</DIV>
