Black weather stripping between door & window is popping out, Help!
Does anyone know how to fix this, I can see there are clips that hold the strip down, but there hard to reach and bend back in. The dealer wants $100 to fix it? Can anyone help? Thanks.

Keep in mind the clip goes in the second slot, not the first.
Its allmost impossible to do if you dont know what your doing and the window is in the way.
If they keep poping out its just a matter of time before the door gets scratched if its not allready. This will be mutch more expensive than the $100 to have someone else fix it and be done.
You need to pull the inner door panel, side mirror and loosen the glass felt guides to allow the glass to hinge out of the way. Pull the mouldings and repair the metal tabs, I would suggest replacing the moulding all together and paying someone that has done it before.
