Not really. I ended up using a racheting tie down and soaking the whole thing in a hot soapy bath, then using a rubber mallet to tap on the frame. I thought I was going to crack the glass

Most of the time we try to use two people. One to hold the glass at a 45 degree angle and push inward, and another to work the rubber around the hooks so that the rubber doesn't get pinched or torn. Tape doesn't always work and sometimes it's hard to see if the frames have gone in far enough to hook on the body.

Put on my door handle guards, finally...and the passenger side isn't fitting quite right. It needs to be bent outwards a bit in order to sit flush against the car but that's an easy fix.
Any tricks to get these things sealed so that moisture doesn't get trapped behind them? I don't live in a wet state, so I shouldn't worry too much but I don't want the paint to get ruined if I can prevent it.

Pushed it into the barn to sit for yet another winter. Did nothing to it this year.

That's cos you're waiting on me. Just ask Jason how slow I am. 
If I can avoid breaking anything on my body for awhile I'll be getting caught up in 2016.
