Or, you guys could have pulled the window frame out and done it the easy
way. It LOOKS like more work to pull the window frame, but, unless you
get that clip on exactly right the first or second time with the windows
still in the frame, you'll be surprise at how easy it is to unbolt and
lift out the frame. Plus gives you a chance to clean the grit film off
the bottom of the glass.
That's mainly for the fronts. There seems to be more room and less
impediments in the rear doors, I find those easier to fish the clip on by
hand with frame in.
YMMV of course.
