Lisle 48600 Offset Windshield Locking Strip Tool

Works great I had one years ago and it disappeared. Had to have another for my 76 c10 replacement seal, only way to go. Good quality tool.

Excellent tool

I drive a military K5 blazer, and thanks to mr hail storm, lost the windshield, and side glass This little beauty makes installing the glass pretty easy, put the NEW (dont even try to reused the rubber), weather-stripping in, get it seated right, set the auto glass in, and use this to open up the channel the lock strip fits in, you pul it along, and it opens up the channel, inserts the lock strip. Be sure to use some lube, soap, silicone to keep things slippery, and have a helper hold the glass to be sure it doens't slip and shatter accidentally. Took all of 5 minutes per side to install the glass, and we had never done it before. TAKE YOUR TIME AND DONT FORCE THINGS, and youll have no problems. Works for any car that has the lock strip type weatherstripping, old gm trucks/blazers, ford/etc (diff "blades" for different manufacturers)

I doubt that I would have been able to insert the locking strip into the window seal without a tool like this.

Popped the window out of my track loader, backing in the woods into a branched. Had a hell of a time trying to work it in using screw drivers, lube and putty knife. Got it in about a third of the way and my neighbor stopped ny and said he saw a window guy use a tool and went right in within minutes. We looked on line and he said this was it. Ordered it and it put the trim in within a few minutes. WOW what a time saver. Worth every penny, especially because I didn't break the window by accident! If I never use it again it was worth it.

Had a windshield popout problem on motorhome. I tried to get the glass and seal back, using a couple of screwdrivers, that turned out to be virtually impossible. I talked to the safelite man, and he said he did not do motorhome windshields, so I asked him if he would show me what tools he would use, if he did. He showed me a tool similar to this Lisle 47 tool, and explained about how to do it, using warm soapy dish liquid. I then found this tool on amazon, and ordered it and received in a few days. This is quite rugged, and works very well, just don't get in a hurry, and look at the instructions which there are not many. Also take a look on youtube for a video. In my case it turned out to be a fairly painless job, other than the fact I don't like climbing step ladders anymore. In my case I also fabricated a clip that would bite slightly in the rubber seal, and hold the rubber seal in place on upper right hand corner of windshield. Its been good every since. I carry this tool in the motorhome just in case. Worked great for me

Great little tool

Works ok but won’t purchase again

indispensabile per le vecchie auto

Super fast shipping. Got in 3 days to Norway. Tool very good, cant imagine doing job with those strips without it. construction super simple so it is easy to use it even if you are unexperienced like me.

An absolute must for installing lock strips in window beading. Worked great for my new plexiglass window trim on my 1975 boler trailer.

great tool

bought to install the bead , had to do a few test to find out which end is the best , but once you have the right one , it makes a really crappy job , becoming a medium one well built , solid grip , and tip did not rotate during use as I was fearing would buy again
