Posted October 25, 20204 yr comment_608924 I have out my back right quarter window on 240z. i bought all new weatherstrippings and put them on. Now it is Tight.... i am mean too tight. I have the weatherstripping on right and solidly. However, even with me pushing the window in with everything i have it still will not line up with the holes. I compared the weatherstripping with the OEM on my left side and its definitely thicker. Anyone else run into this issue?

October 25, 20204 yr comment_608926 Yeah it's damn tight. I remember it being really hard to get the screws in. Careful you don't cross thread them. Keep trying. Get a helper.

October 26, 20204 yr comment_608950 Yeah you might need a helper, I had to hammer the tabs a little bit, I think the last person in there messed them up. I also used new hardware, my old ones looked weathered from leaks, wanted to avoid stripping stuff.

October 26, 20204 yr comment_608955 I have seen people use longer screws to help pull the window in and then replace with the original ones. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/64606-quarter-window-fit/#findComment-608955 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 26, 20204 yr comment_608956 Warm up the rubber well and lubed well. Two or three people helps. Seal from the inside after installed if needed. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/64606-quarter-window-fit/#findComment-608956 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubbing alcohol makes a good lubricant for installation. Then it just evaporates.
