I thought it was gravity.

I didn't put tape on mine when I reinstalled it.

If you can keep the window on the channel it's a lot easier. If it comes off if I recall it can be a pain to get it back on. Make sure you grease up everything when you have it off.

When installing the trim that goes vertically on the back part of the window/door look for some small cuts in the trim. They go in that 90° small radius at the back/top corner.

There are a few videos showing the install. It's pretty straight forward once you get started.

What are you doing with you door panels? If you pull them off be careful not to break the plastic. I have heard of some using a hacksaw to cut through the clips to preserve the panels.
