Replacing Window Belt Weatherstrip on First Gen Tundra

**EDIT** It makes the project a little more involved, but I would recommend loosening the mirror to get the weatherstrip fully seated forward. To do so, you need to remove the door panel, which isn't hard but may add a half hour per side. I didn't think to do this until "Airpaycheck" mentioned it in the comments section. Thanks for the tip!!
Hey there! In this video, I replace the Window Belt Weatherstrip in my 2002 Toyota Tundra with a brand new OEM piece. This applies to all First Gen Tundras, and the installation was very straight forward. I hope you find the video helpful, thank you for watching! - Sal

Might be good to loosen up the mirror a bit to get the trim further forward. I did mine and had the same issues.

[@JDMDriveway]

Dang, I didn’t even think about doing that. It would definitely be the best way to do it for sure. Thanks for the tip, I may redo it this weekend, I just wish I didn’t trim the rubber flap at the back… lol thanks for watching though! - Sal

[@bunzobunny2816]

Is yours a double cab? I’m looking for a video on one for mine, I’m hoping both front and back are easy like this video

[@flavrdPnut]

I have an 01’ AC and have done years of work on it but still need a lot more. This is one of those installs. I’m so glad there are so many 1st Gen guys putting in work to help us all out in our endeavors. Thank you very much for doing so much leg work for parts/numbers to speed our jobs up. Your doing Gods work my friend keep it up! ✊🏼

This is a video that I didn’t even know I needed, but i went to check my 1st gens weather strips and turns out I definitely did need this video. Thank you !

[@JDMDriveway]

Hahaha that’s awesome, glad I could help! - Sal

[@michaelscott9086]

So easiest way to get the molding under the mirror is to slide the clips off the new piece install them on the truck. Then slide it under the mirror and press it all down. The clips click back into the tracks no problem.

[@JDMDriveway]

That's a great tip that I didn't think of. Thanks for the heads up!!

[@Cookies205]

Man the paint job on your Tundra looks like its holding up insanely well

[@JDMDriveway]

Thanks dude, there's a few minor spots on the truck with some overspray so I think one of the previous owners had part of it repainted, but I'm not sure when that was. I ceramic coated it in hopes of keeping it looking this good tho! Haha thanks for watching - Sal

[@timheffron5849]

One thing to try when trying to push the new weather strip forward under the mirror plastic is to apply something like vinyl or plastic trim dressing to the mirror plastic with a q-tip. This may allow the new weather strip to slide in/under the mirror plastic.

[@JDMDriveway]

That’s a good idea, I wish I had spent more time figuring out the best way to help it slide all the way up. But the comment section has come up with some good ideas like this to hopefully help other people too. Thanks Tim! - Sal

[@wayneward4618]

Good video!!. Mine went in well after watching this. I also installed new trim. Old trim came off fine, but broke half the clips. New part should come with clips in the track already. Points: -Old clips can help line up new clips if they did not completely break.(They are not magically in the correct spot and slide w/ a little effort...careful) -Soapy water after clean up can help the trim slide under/behind mirror. (I just left a little around the slot) -Soft/hard plastic hammer eased/tapped the trim behind mirror too. (Watch the alignment w/the other end. Curve has to match door panel. I tapped LIGHTLY from latch end of trim moving trim forward to get behind mirror always watching curve alignment. Not need to cut the rubber in my case) -If your are using small thin metal flat bar to push up trim to start, put wide plastic putty knife under FBar. (I tapped the FBar up and back from the end gently but still had 20+ year old clips break) My old trim appears to be straight. I would just need to get new clips to reinstall. Would have to do some serious prep and paint but usable if the belt was not shot.

[@CurtisL8.3066]

I took the door cards and mirrors off and installed some good ones I found in a junkyard, was tons easier doing it that way, and they lined up nicely. Ended up painting over the chrome mirror caps while i had them off with black bedliner and they turned out pretty nice as well

[@Ojb_1959]

So what I did on my 03 SR5 when I noticed the black plastic coating peeling was just peel it off all the way. In some places along the edge I had to use a razor knife to get a clean straight line and now I’ve got a cool custom chrome window sill trim. The rubber strip that touches the window was still in good shape so no need to replace it yet. My mirrors are chrome too so it fits imo. 🤙🏼

[@JDMDriveway]

Nice, that's a good option! The rubber by my windows was torched so I needed the whole new piece. Thanks for watching!

@@JDMDriveway I wanted to do it too myself. Mine are a lot worse than yours were. The black rubber stuff has almost fully chipped off and they are silver lol. I tried to remove the drivers the same way you did but with pliers and ended up snapping some of the white clips. At that point I stopped and didn’t feel comfortable removing the other weather stripping.

[@JDMDriveway]

Dang, I’m really sorry to hear that. It looks like you can buy just the clips from Toyota (part # 68212-0C010) if you were planning to repaint/wrap your old weatherstrip, but if you buy them new it will come with the clips.

When I had a 2002 Tacoma, I vinyl-wrapped the belt weather strips, and it looked okay, but I broke a lot of the clips, taking it off as its old brittle plastic. In hindsight, it's better to buy OEM. I now have a 2004 Tundra 4X4; mine will need to be replaced in a year, and I will buy OEM parts.
