So I'm getting my car painted soon and instead of having the shop do the body work on the rusted hatchback I replaced it. The replacement had the glass with the defrost and my original did not so I wanted to keep my original. When I took my original off it was just the small u-channel gasket and a ton of glue. The replacement I took off was factory installed and never replaced and it had an additional piece of glue/weather stripping that I can't find, even on parts diagrams. It was more like glue than weather stripping and it had a single piece of thread all the way through it. I wish I took a picture of it but I didn't. Does anyone have any clue what I'm talking about? I'm not even sure I have a clue what I'm talking about.

Here's what I think you are calling the U channel. Mine has been slowly letting go for a good while. Other than that there should be a thick bead of glass adhesive that holds the window in.

@J4bs4209333 dont worry....... it actually becomes fun to read and chime in on all the antics.... eh.... conversation. Sift through it, and there’s a ton of people who are more than happy to give you a ton of answers. Even I come up with an answer here and there! Welcome....... come and enjoy the camaraderie.
And if you drink beer, we have a pretty cool thread going on about that too! Cheers!
