removing rear quarter window? Options

[georgie]

Hey, so my window trim is cracked and missing pieces on the rear quarter window. How would i remove the window and install a new one?

[georgie]

no one? =(

You would need to get a steak knife to cut the rubber on the side closest to the pass and driver doors. (Just a little break through slice)
Then get a thin cutting wire from home depot, put it through that hole you made and make your way around the whole window.
It would be easier to explain with pictures, but I hope that helps and you get the concept of what I'm talking about.

this is probably something best left to a window professional

that is what you need + a long knife. Cut from the interior

from what i've read the rear windows are bonded to the car w/ a sort of glue. once your remove the plastic body trim from the inside you can see it. you'll have to cut it out either with a tool like posted above or you might just try asking an autoglass place, one by me said thy would do it for 25 bucks if i take out the interior plastic, you can prolly find some shop close to give a simlar or better deal.

hope that helps i'm looking to do this soon too

All automotive FIXED windows (front, rear, quarter) are adhered with "glue"

you'll have to get window sealant adhesive to re-adhere the replacement back to the car + the required trim pieces

Hi guys...jusy to say I will put together a DIY on how to do this asap.

I am in the middle of customising/restoring my celica and giving it a fresh paint job so have removed the quarter windows, drip rail and window trims.

I shall get my pics up on a new thread asap.

Cheers.
