I bought a set of these seals - link. Anyone got a set of install instructions laying around?

No instructions needed. Remove quarter piller seal. Remove screw holding the "tail" down. Slide out the quarter window verticle seal. Reverse to install. Use silicone on rubber to install. Now the bad. I bought and installed the same seal from them last summer. I believe it was the Metro Molded brand. The "tail" is not as long as the original. I had to drill a hole into the frame, which was solid, for the screw.

You now what - these weren't even the ones I was looking for. Where the heck do these go?

Fits in the chrome trim on the quarter glass to seal between that and the door glass.

This piece? I don't see how this would come off or how the new rubber would go on. This is the one I'm trying to replace though.

It's done as I stated above although I'll add this. Once you get the screw out of the bottom you pull it out from the top as you roll the window down.

That'll be hard since I don't have the roll down rear windows I think we've found the problem. The seal on my glass doesn't attach to the body, just the glass. It's going to be a totally different piece. Wish I'd thought of that!

Roll down window and fixed window uses AS FAR I KNOW same molding and seal. Of course is not the same glass but the front edge is the same shape to accept the same molding.
Trim should be able to be simply pulled out, then replace the vertical seal from it
However, it could be a diff between 71 and 72, since bottom of the glass is a pot metal frame on 71, while 72 is a full glass piece, so, even 71 could be attached with some screw, 72 ( same as 73/74 ) must be just pressed to the glass.
If you open the door and remove the quarter jam seal, you should be able to confirm how to remove the molding, then once is out, replace the seal... which will be pretty much a straight out job

But... honestly, if your original vertical seal is still in good conditions I wouldn't replace it. Replacements are not half as good as the original piece.
BTDT.
I'll try yo keep it as far is posible
