This is how I got it to work. Yes a real PITA and some sore hands.

1) Install outer seal and clips. You can't get to the clips when glass is
in.
2) Insert glass.
3) Fit inner seal ( I think from top)
4) Open up clips a bit and fit from bottom with needle nose and screwdriver.

Thanks
Duncan

Does anybody have a secret to installing the window waist seals and 
those &$@*ing clips?
Yes I have a "J" hook which would work great if it was magnetic and not 
so curved.
Is there a way to cut the glass in half so it's out of the way so I can 
get to the clips then glue the glass back?
The window does not fit down the hole with the seals in place.
The clips will not go on with the window in the hole.
I really believe it is easier to cut off the outer door skin, install 
the window seal clips, weld up the door and repaint the car. It would 
save a lot of time.
Maybe if I bought the "correct" clips instead of the clips sold for the 
seals from VB cause they don't fit the seal let alone the seal and the 
metal.
Some mindless idiot had to do this at the factory, I wish I knew how he 
did it.
Maybe I am trying too hard.
How to's would be extremely welcome.
