window replacement. - 7/31/2007 8:47:31 AM    stigedis   Posts: 13 Score: 0 Joined: 11/25/2005 Status: offline 1990 Accord EX 4 dr. Have a window that needs to be replaced. Passenger rear. I was hit and replaced the entire door of my vehicle. However, now i want to change the windows out becuase of tinting. So my original door is off the car (no power) and i wnat to get that window out. As well as remove the window from the door that is on my car. The panel is off the door with no power. But I still cannot figure how to remove the window. Does it need to be powered up and in the down position to get the window out? Do you need a special tool or something? And when installing, do you need anything special or does it just bolt on the frame??? AND....how bout the little triangle window. Is that a DIY project or does it require taking to a window shop??? Thanks in advance.... Post #: 1
