In the latter stages of fixing all the ways Escape rear hatches can leak, today I replaced the weatherstripping around the hatch glass opening. Because the strip is one loop, this requires either removing the hatch glass's hinges, or removing all the wiring plus the struts. I chose the latter. It also requires removing the inner trim panel from the hatch, but I've had lots of practice doing that.
Since the pinchweld for the opening has many irregularities, I filled the slot in the rubber weatherstrip with windshield adhesive before installing it. If and when this weatherstrip leaks, the water ends up in the cargo area and causes all sorts of mischief. This is a bit of an awkward job with the heavy hatch glass flapping around.
I also installed transparent protective film on the 6 places on the hatch where my bike rack's straps attach. This will protect the paint.
Started working on installing sound deadener in the doors, but got stopped because it requires a T30 screwdriver to remove the inner door panels.
