    Once you have the door panel out, it's literally two bolts. Then as you lift up, the window probably leans forward to come out of the channel.

    Instructions


    • Removing the Door Panel
      • 1Remove the negative battery cable with a wrench.

      • 2Remove the small plastic covers over the trim panel screws located in the inner door handle pocket and the armrest with a putty knife. Remove the trim panel screws with a screwdriver.

      • 3Pry out the electric window control unit with a putty knife and unplug it (or remove the manual crank with a screwdriver, if you don't have power windows). Remove the power mirror remote control from the driver side door with a screwdriver.

      • 4Insert the putty knife between the door and the panel clips and pry the clips loose from the door. Remove the trim panel from the door and disconnect the door courtesy light and any other wires that remain between the panel and the door.


      Replacing the Glass


      • 5Peel the inner and outer belt line sealing strip from the door with a putty knife. Remove the run channel screws with a screwdriver and pull the run channel from the door. Remove the front run channel as well if necessary.

      • 6Raise the window halfway. Push on the rear retainer clip to release the window from the rear run channel. Remove any window retaining bolts, if necessary, with a wrench.

      • 7Disengage the regulator arm from the sash channel and tilt the glass inboard of the door. Lift the glass up and out of the door.

      • 8Insert the new glass into the door. Engage the regulator arm roller with the sash channel. Lower the glass halfway and slide the window back to engage the rear run channel.

      • 9Lower the window to leave about three inches of glass showing. Install the front glass channel and engage the front retainer with the glass. Install the window retaining bolts, if applicable, and tighten them down.

      • 10Reverse the disassembly steps for reassembly.
