[Healeys] Replacing perspex in hardtop

[Per Schoerner]

I did this last year. I had a window made locally, which means I had to 
trim it to fit myself. Anyway, no aluminium has to be removed, just 
remove the locking seal, then the window and rubbers should go out 
fairly easy. Mine did anyway, almost fell out of itself.
Then install the rubber seals and the window in it. Your window is 
already trimmed I suppose, so you don't have to do that. It should go in 
fairly easy. I used an old screw driver I had made smooth to pry the 
rubber seal over the aluminium edge when I needed a tool, otherwise I 
just used my hands. Then install the locking strip.
Before wind screen were glued in place, say in the 70's and before that, 
wind screens (and rear windows) were installed using a length of thin 
ropeto force the rubber seal over the steel edge in the window opening, 
no need to do that here.
