Yes, get rid of any and all silicone. There are products at the H/W store to help chemically remove it.
They don't usually seal the bottom of windows and such with caulk. I suspect they want them to drain if anything should ge in. It is sealed with putty though.
Thanks Scott..What about the sides of the windows?
The first line of defense is a putty under the flange of the window or door.
I suspect manufacturers only apply a caulk around the edge of those area's in an effort to keep the putty from pooching out.
If you like, you can put a small bead around those spots but I have area's of caulk missing around my windows and I'm not going to bother with them.
Good luck with your new rig!
