i have been trying to get the moldings to stay in on the floor to no avail. the moldings are not bent.

thanks
thats how my glass guy did mine...I was a wimp and paid for that job.

get a helper to push on the section of window that is being actively sealed while you are pulling the rope out. That helped a lot.
