Is there a video that anyone knows of that gives instructions on installing the rear glass in 57 hardtops? Appreciate any help you can provide.

Re: Hardtop glass installation
Very easy. Put the seal around the glass, put the stainless trim into the groove of the seal making sure it locks around the edge of the glass then put 1/4" rope into the outer groove of the seal leaving the ends overlapped by at least a foot. Spray the seal and rope with a soapy solution (too much is better). Have a helper hold the whole assembly against the hardtop from the outside. Have the helper apply pressure while you start to pull one end of the rope towards the inside which will pull the lip of the seal over the opening in the top. Work slowly around until the whole seal is over the lip and you're done.
