Correct Door Assembly Procedure

[Tincup]

I am just finishing up painting my doors and was hoping someone with a little experience re-assembling the doors would chime in. What is the correct sequence to re-assemble the door mechanisms. Do I install the glass surround first? or I'm thinking install the vent window and glass into the surround first, then install the surround to the door. Any help would be appreciated...

I wrote some notes when I did mine.

1. Lay the door flat outside down
2. Install the door latch
3. Lay window regulator & glass in door
4. Attach regulator to glass inside the door
5. Bolt regulator to door- leaving window down
6. Install upper door frame with vent window attached to upper frame.
7. Install door handle & related mechanisms
8. Install window whiskers
9. Install channel run seals
10. Stand back & admire your work.!
