Default weatherstripping

I need to replace the rubber strip on the outside of the RR window. Its the seal on the bottom of the window. Not sure what exactly it is called, but the only place I could find something like it is from http://www.thevolvosite.com/V70/V70-...-moldings.html and they call it "moulding". Anyone with experience replacing this strip? Pretty straight-forward or special tools needed? thanks

Yep, kinda thought that my description was confusing...picture attached. The strip I need to replace it labeled #6. The picture doesn't show the right rear door that needs to be fixed, but it doesn't matter...all the windows have this strip.

You need to do the outside one correct? If so it slides into a groove in the door. It will pull up.

No it should just pull up. Put the window down as far as it will go then you should be able to access some of it to pull up on it.

Installation is the same as removal...just press the strip into place?
