I need to install some new quarter panel molding since mine is broken. Was thinking of going the lubricant route since I won't have to remove the window. Here is what I presume would be the steps once the old broken piece is removed:
- Clean the seal and seal trench to remove debris - with degreaser?
- lubricate seal, seal trench and new molding spline - What lubricant to use? White lithium grease? DC111?
- Insert molding ends underneath existing corner caps
- Heat seal with hair dryer
- Carefully insert molding spline into seal trench at one corner, making sure not to bend molding. press evenly - use a roller to help?
- Continue pressing carefully along the molding until the entire molding is seated
