I lubed the rubber seal with a rubber lube (Ruglyde) but dishsoap works as well. Then install (stuff) the cord into the inboard track of the weatherstrip.
Start at the bottom, in the center and go all around the perimeter, overlapping at the bottom.
After the cord is on, center the window with the weatherstrip in the opening. Shove the cord (at the bottom) through the opening first. Starting with the bottom, fit the flange on the top into the bottom track of the weatherstrip. You might need to peel the rubber from the inside by hand to get it started. Once the rubber starts to overlap the flange, from the inside of the truck, pull the cord. It will pull the rubber through the opening. It may only pull 1/2 of the rubber "lip" on top of the flange......that's OK. Pull the rope all the way around the perimeter. The sharp corners will require a little extra coaxing. Use your fingers to help pull the rubber in. Once you go a;ll the way around...it "sucks" the window into the opening. Then you can finish seating the seal. by pushing the window from the outside.
