    How to replace the window seal on the doors

    I decided to replace my mold seals on the door and window. Here's a quick how to and very basic.


    First the tools you need are a screw driver and a Phillips.

    Unclip all 3 push pins located in the jam of the door and in the front of the door panel up top.

    Then take the screw driver and unscrew the small bit behind the locking mechanism in the door handle.


    Then unscrew the two large screws on the only oh shit bar there is in the car. At the top and at the bottom of the door panel bar.

    Make sure you take the cup bezel around the door handle off.



    Then pull gently using the door panel handle towards you lifting up to expose the doors guts.


    Roll the window all the way down and locate two pins in the front and rear of the seal.

    Once unclipped, the seal is clipped to the door. These are what they look like

    Gently lift up and they should come off. Some will stick to the door which is okay because this is where you use the Phillips head to push the clip towards the car and up with your finger.


    This is what they look like afterwards
