Yes a very tricky job if you want to get the rusty channel off the glass, the last one I did was rusted to the glass and it was a case of laying the glass on a flat surface with edge that has the runner hanging over the edge of the bench/table or whatever and gently tapping the runner away from the glass but it does make y'bum twitch somewhat ! :)
I managed to remove it from the glass but I could easily have broken the glass, I think it's one of those job's where you just have to bite the bullit and have ago.
It's also a bit tricky getting the new glass in the door but it obviously goes in with some jiggling about, If I remember rightly it goe's in from the bottom hole under the cross brace but don't hold me to that ! LOL.
Best of luck mate and remember........ Be carefull out there!;)
