Drivers rear door window replacement

I don't see any reference to a power window for the sliding doors, so these instructions should apply.

When the glass is cracked, but still in place, most professionals use a piece of piano wire to saw through the rubber glue. Since your glass is already mostly gone, you should be able to remove enough of the glue with a razor knife. Please be careful and take your time.

The best place to get a replacement is from a salvage yard, but for this type of miserable job, go to one where they take the replacement out of the donor vehicle for you. Inspect it for chips around the inside edge where they might have damaged it with that piano wire. Chips can leave a weak spot that can cause it to shatter on a really hot or cold day.

Sorry for the confusion. I made the writing larger in the second drawing to be easier to read, but I can't delete the first one.

I assume you mean the glass for the sliding door? If so, I have attached it below. Please let me know if you need something else. Thanks

If you see what look like the flat head of a plastic rivet, carefully pry them up, then pull them at least part of the way out. The stem goes into another piece with four fingers that expand to lock them in place. Sliding that "plastic nail" partway out lets the fingers relax so it can be pulled out. To reinstall them, push the black four-fingered plastic piece in with the nail partly installed, then just push the nail in all the way to lock it in place.

Often there's Philips screws holding the panel on, and there's a little cover over the screw's hole. There will be a very tiny hole in that cap to stick a small pick into to pop that cap off.

I don't think this applies here, but sometimes you'll run into what I call "feather fasteners". I think the correct name is "fender plug" or "fender retainer". They look somewhat like a giant plastic nail, but they have multiple barbs all the way around. There's special forked tools to pry those out. I use a side cutter for electrical wire, with a soft touch so I don't accidentally cut them. It's common for the heads to pull through whatever it is they're holding on. Most of the time you can get them out later and reattach them to the panel. These photos show the fastener and one version of the removal tool.

Surely! Please keep us updated on your progress.

I've only done a few of these some years ago. The dealer's parts department provided me with the sealant in a tube used in a caulking gun.

This is what I found for the sliding door.

Dandy. I knew you could do it. Please come back to see us again.
