should be that simple. just make sure that you clean the area really well before installing the new one cuz the glue wont hold as well if it is dirty. other than that, should be cake.

Weatherstripping
On the back window it is essential that you clean the area very well. I used alcohol and then waxed the area to be sure then used alcohol again. The top of the window will be pretty dirty and that is where you will get an inside leak.

Well, let me provide some feedback since I just finished this project:
1. Moonroof weather strip. No issues taking the moon roof glass out or in. No issues taking the old weatherstrip out. Big issues placing the new one in. The weatherstrip is designed to be seated in two places along the glass and the frame. Hard to describe. It took me almost two hrs to get it done. My recommendation? Take this one to the dealer. Not worth the hassle. For those who are interested, the moon roof weather strip (or seal) part # is: SL1Z-7851884-AA @ $81.03.
2. Back glass weatherstrip was a piece of cake. No issues. The part number is: 2L1Z-7842084-CA @ $33.70.
