Remove the window from the door by applying outward pressure to the inside of the window. Use a heat gun around the window edges to soften the Butyl-tape if necessary.

If using the existing window, remove all of the old Butyl-tape from both the glass and the pinch weld area with a plastic scraper or appropriate tool, being careful not to scratch the ELPO.
Remove the Butyl-tape residue with a general purpose adhesive cleaner.
Clean the glass to be installed with a glass cleaner.
Position the Butyl-ribbon sealer in the channel area of the window starting and stopping the sealer on the bottom channel of the glass. Allow for a 10 mm (25/64 in) overlap of the Butyl-ribbon sealer.
With the glass at room temperature, align the glass with the body opening and the bead of Butyl-ribbon sealer. Press the glass into position.
Use firm hand pressure around the glass perimeter to assure a good seal between the glass and the Butyl-ribbon sealer.
