I had the best day ever working on the bus, one I will remember. I actually pulled a new part out of a MCI bag and fit it to the bus, it is the rear window seal that fits in the outside channel of the glass frame. For a mere thirty dollars the idiot PO's could have prevented acres of corrossion. It only took thirty minutes to install and water has entered for last time while I own the bus. Funny thing is it is the same rubber section used on the side window sashes also. I can have another blissfull experience.  ;D

I don't know Airbag? It seems to me a good day working would be more like shining the stainless, sipping a beer on a beach somewhere. But hey, what ever drives your bus. All the Best, M&C

You all must understand my bus is 44 years old and for the last twenty or so it has been maintained by Curly Larry and Moe. Instead of replacing a seal the answer was to apply silicone. I think they had a 55 gallon drum of the stuff with a air operated application gun. I have silicone gargoyles hanging from the front of the bus. My bus scares children when it drives by. When I can install a seal out of an MCI box it's a good day.

Rick,

The PO of my bus went one better, he siliconed the swing-out emergency window so they now can't be opened for emergency use or for window repair.

I guess that if I ever have a broken window I'll have to hack out the window piece by piece. Fortunately I have some spare windows. It is impossible to access the silicone with a wire like used for newer windshield removal.

It must be nice to have a newer bus, mine is 55 years old!!
