rear side window rust

[bignblue]

Anybody have a fix / difficulty level for rust seeping out from under the rear side windows? I'm talking about the long ones that line the rear/luggage compartment on my Chero. I just noticed it bubbling up yesterday, so I'm obviously going to have to pull the window out to fix it. Where is the water coming from, do ya think? Is it just a bad window seal? How to fix?

Bign,
My 89 Wagon had the same problem with the rust, and yes it is most likely the source of your water. My rust was not all that bad, though bad enough to cause a bunch of water to find its way into the cargo area. What I di was remove glass, wire wheel all the rust I could get to, apply rust converter everywhere, prime it and paint it. I used black oil base paint and blended it in with the black weatherstrip.(that way, I didn't have to repaint the fender.)
Don't be terribly surprised if you find lots of rust under there. Mine was barely showing, and I found about 3 times as much as I could see. Also, I did run a super thick bead of silicone sealer under the weatherstrip for good measure. Any questions just ask.
