How do I install doorglass weatherstripping?

Hi. I've got a 1992 Ford F150. I am replacing the driver's side doorglass weatherstripping. After disassembling he door panel it came to my surprise that the door glass weatherstripping goes all the way down to the bottom of the door glass stops. Do I just pry and pull on the weatherstripping or does the door glass have to come out? I would greatly appreciate the advice. Thanks

How do I install doorglass weatherstripping?

The stuff I call "fuzzies" goes into the door to guide your glass all the way. You buy the stuff in 6' lengths and bend it to fit the application.

I had to take my door apart to get the stuff out and remove the brackets that held it. Your truck might be different in how the channel is held, but I don't know how else to replace it without taking the door apart enough to get the glass out and the channel.

Maybe somebody else here has some tricks to doing it quickly.

How do I install doorglass weatherstripping?

Thanks for responding to my post. The weatherstripping that I'm replacing is the one that wraps around the doorglass inside the door skin. I bought the weatherstripping from a Ford dealer and measures about 4' long. It looks like I can just press fit in there. It has no clips or brackets to it. But my problem is that I don't know how to remove the old one. Do I just pry out and pull on the piece? I think I'll replace the inner and out fuzzies while I'm at it, too. By the way, how do I send in pictures to this post? That has always been a mystery to me on how a person posts their pictures on these forums. Hope to hear from anyone soon. Thanks.
