Always, leave the rubber, on the bottom, on the body. Shoot urethane in where the glass goes, work glass into the rubber. Reinstall chrome, put rope in grove (top and 2 sides) that goes over the pinch weld. Then shoot a bead of urethane in the outer groove, where the rubber meets the roof. Then rope in the top and 2 sides. If you want to make the job neater, put painters tape on the body, overlapping the dirt line or where the rubber covers. Push down on the rubber oozing out any excess urethane, clean it, the pull the tape. Clean job.
No Ooops on this one...
In 1986 you needed a new gasket better than 50% of the time. All of those Japanese cars of that era generally needed new gaskets the first time around. The gasket was glued on so good that it ripped taking the original glass out. Shield FW417 Gasket WCR417
Ooops...
If you knew what you were doing you could use the original gasket and the original chrome and just replace the glass. But you had to know how to do this. Most didn't. OOOOPPPPS
