So here's the thing,  my truck doesn't have very good heat at the moment so I need to keep as much heat in the cab as possible.  My rear sliding window had no gaskets at the sliders on either side.  My fix started with some 5/16" rubber hose and it looked like it actually belonged but there was still a gap between the slider and the stationary window.  So I ended up using 3/8" rubber fuel line and as it doesn't look as good it is sealed.  Question would be over time will it fall off if I don't use some sort of glue?  If so should I use a gasket maker or maybe epoxy or what to keep it in place?  I'm leaning more towards gasket maker myself.

I would say use a lil RTV or just silicone.... Should hold pretty good.

shd be in garage tech section

  They'll move it when they see it.

Not a bad idea really, and silicone would prolly be the easy fix to hold it there.  And it would clean up if it ever came off.
