Door Window Frames

Since the vent windows needed to be replaced and the seals were dry it was time to remove the door window frames for restoration.

​

Used an impact driver to get the rusty door edge screws out.  The rest of the frame came out easily.  Scraped-off the old seals and stripped the old paint to bare metal.  Primed & painted them Light Gray.

​

Seals & vent windows came from Wolfsburg West for $400.  The vent frames came in bright white so I masked & painted them Light Gray.  Dividers & slider bars were stripped & painted.

​

The installation of the seals was a frustrating experience.  Lots of silicon lubricant & patience.  The top seal finally went in by pulling it with channel-locks while pushing on the seal.  Looks so good when done & the doors close firmly & smoothly.  Great fit!
