Subject:Sliding window glass removal
From:Nick Feickert
Date:Wed, 20 May 2015 08:39:12 -0400

After searching with no good answers, I have to request some help. I have
both of my sliders out of the van. I have new window guides and felt to
replace. Also, I'm gonna tint the glass. Now the window guides and the
tint can be done with the glass still in the frame. But no way to replace
the felt channels without removing the glass from the frame. The one side
of the frame with the fixed glass has the break in it. But I'm to scared
to attempt to pry that end apart and bend the frame or worse, never get it
to seal up again. The seal that the slider runs in seems impossible to
remove with the glass still in, so how is this done!?! I can only assume
that someone has had the fixed glass broken and replaced, so it has to be
feasable. Right? Anyone?
