Yes. It kind of helped, hard to explain.

I was just wondering. I don't know how many times I've witnessed a glass guy pull a rear window into place, nearly effortlessly, using the rope trick. The only help ever needed from me was to hold the window to the cab while he pulled the rope. Or if the interior was full of parts and stuff, I'd climb in and pull the rope since I was smaller.

Long blathering post on window install is now edited. Sorry all.

Pulling the rope seemed to get the outer lip over the spline but we both had to really push it as delicately as possible but also forcefully to get the seal rested on the spline.

Found some limited time to tape the white in preparation for the colored hood stripes. Gonna paint orange first, hopefully next few days. It’s been a bit breezy and buggy for painting so I am keeping busy with landscaping, skiing, fishing and off-road racing.
