How to Replace Weatherstripping on a BMW


1. Pry the old weather stripping out of its place with a slotted screwdriver. Wrap the tip of the screwdriver with the shop rag if you are concerned about scratching the paint on your cars exterior panels as you remove the weather stripping. Start from one end, and slowly work your way around the perimeter of the window.
2. Pull the old weather stripping out of place once it has been loosened, and run a shop rag between the window and body panels to clean out any remnants of dirt.
3. Align the new piece of weather stripping with your window, and gently tap it into place using your rubber mallet. Start at one corner, and work your way around the perimeter of the window, just as you did when removing the old weather stripping.
