Replacing rear window. new seal or not?
Hi all, I have a 89 Laredo. I'm replacing the rear window with one that is tint and heater free so its easier to see out of. The tint is in horrible shape. I found a nice piece of glass at the U-Pull-It in San Antonio. The seal or gasket for the window is kinda hard and seems to be slightly stretched after I put it on the new glass. Didn't think to find a gasket when I was in SA.
So my question is should I replace it? and if yes where do I find a gasket/seal? I've found sites selling weatherstripping. But me thinks that is for the space between the hatch and the body.

If you have it out you should replace it. Why have to do the job twice. Check www.teamcherokee.com for the seal
