The pivot bolt passes through the rubber seal. Its nut and spring are =
underneath. While you --might-- be able to undo them from inside the doo=
r (I forget details) it would be best that you use penetrating oil gener=
ously on the nut so the bolt is not broken. I removed the entire frame=
for the job, as that gave opportunity to clean and lubricate winder mec=
hanism, adjust the channels, etc. Ask for current recommendations for t=
he rubber. Five or six years ago when I did it, the rubber supplied by o=
ne vendor was, at best, an approximate fit. It is cracking and splitting=
now, so the replacement is to be anticipated this coming winter.Bob

Hi, Question, I replaced the horizontal seal on my vent windows many yea=
rs ago and did remove the window. To replace the =E2€œtriangu=
lar=E2€=9D rubber seal around the vent window can I just remove the=
old one and stuff the new one in, or do I need to remove the window aga=
in? Thanks Dave Willner
