Ugh, it's a pain. I tried to use Stacy Schneider's method on mine, with
vent glass installed. Not sure how to describe it at this point though, nor
that I would. Mine leak and my windows don't go up and down easily; they
start up at an angle, I pull them straight by hand, then continue rolling
them up.
