Ya, it took me most the weekend, because of the time factor involved in letting the JB weld dry overnight. Basically, all of Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon with drying time in between.

Cost to replace seal would have been $80 labor at the local glass place where my friend works, but if they'd have found the rust I had, they wouldn't have fixed it. In that case, I'd have been in a real jam trying to get the car home with no back window to fix it and then take it back. So, I did it myself.
