Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: Removing and installing window slot outer seal

  Note
  •   The core of the window slot outer seal is a metal insert.
  •   If it is bent or distorted, the window slot outer seal cannot be straightened out anymore. It will remain “wavy”.
  •   Therefore, the window slot outer seal must be pulled off and pressed on evenly, without bending or distorting it.
  •   Removal and installation are only described for the left window slot outer seal. Removal and installation of the right window slot outer seal are similar.
