Installing door glass

I am progressing fairly well on my reassembly of my '37 120C, and am at the point where I can install the glass in the doors. Do any of you have any recommendations on any literature or any web site that would let me know how this is best accomplished? My main question is how the window channel is kept in place.
I did a search on our Forum site, but did not come up with much in the way on instruction.
Thanks for all of your help, as always.

Hello,
I imagine that Packard would have used the same method installing the window channel on all of its cars in this time period. If this is true then what I found on my 38 '8' may be of assistance.
The channel was attached by a toothed spring clip, with the teeth hooking into the channel itself and the body of the clip then a press fit into its housing.
I attempted to make some of these but was unsuccessful. the next best thing is to glue them in with contact adhesive.
Dennis.
