I do need to do windshield seals (front and rear) since we have had two freak rainstorms this december that I was not counting on and poor granny smith is taking on some water.

any tips on replacing the seals? ive never had to do that job before.
My opinion is this job should be left to the professionals. It is very easy to break the glass, so have someone do it that will replace the glass if they break it. Also, the aluminum trim needs to go in the new seal BEFORE the glass is installed. Removing the inside trim (pillar covers, sail panels etc.) is a DIY job, and that should make the job cheaper for you if the tech only needs to fit the rubber and rope in the glass. You may be surprised to find some rust under the seal. If you do, that should be dealt with before installing new seals.
