Kevin,

I have the old stype rear windows held in by a million screws.  I cut new
windows on a bandsaw using the old window as a pattern.  Smothed/rounded
the
edges with a hand held orbital sander.  The used Mortite (a clay like
material sold for weather stripping) to seal.  I put one or two ropes of
mortite and smothed it down with a walpaper sealer roller.  After mounting
the window (do not tightent he screws too much - better to
tighten/wait/retighten to avoid cracking the window) I cleaned the excess
that squezed out with a plastic putty knife from home depot.  See my web
site for details:

What is the best way to seal the rear windows? I replaced windows about
15 yeas ago but I don't remember what I used as a seal. This is for the
original size rear windows with screws.

Thanks,
Kevin
