Sorry, no pics of the roping in process. We were too focused installing the glass, which took about 10 minutes. I was inside manning the rope and my helper was outside. I got out many times to check that the glass is centered and the bottom lip on the outside was over the body and uses a plastic putty knife to lift the lip over the body if it wasn't. My helper at times would let go of pushing the glass and it didn't shift which is why I think I could have done it alone.

Here's a pic of the installed glass. I need to get another tube of sealant. Maybe I'll try the Mercedes stuff this time. Anyone have part of a tube they want to sell? I will monitor for leaks (or lack of) which will determine if this job is a total success or not.
