see you sunday....a slight hiccup last weekend, was all ready too go but....

Can anyone tell me if i leave the plastic guides in that the old felt was attached to or remove them aswell? My are all cracked and broken.

When i replaced mine i only did the top of the window and the front edge. I don't think it had a plastic guide channel in these. I left the plastic channel in the bottom as it has drain pieces in it and I figured that if i put the bailey channel in the bottom edge it wouldn't drain. I have done well over 4000k since installing and haven't had a rattle so appears to have worked well.
Cheers
Josh

You don't end up with the gap in the middle, but is it worth the extra effort? I guess not. :mad:

since this is clearly the definitive thread.. I'll just leave this here.

Probably the best instructional video on the process is by Garrison Outfitters. It's in several parts, staring..
