Hey guys I had my rear passenger window smashed, and stuff stolen whilst at work last night, it is a 95. So you just take out the weather strips and the channel division bar out and slide in a new window then screw up the regulator to glass screw according to the FSM, correct?.
My issue is I can not get out the regulator to glass screw on the broken one and that is all that seems to attach the window is there a trick to it?
Any words of wisdom would be appreciated. Thanks..........:drinking:

Got it done in the end, just had problems getting the glass to regulator screw out once I got it moving was no problems at all.
I found it was not necessary to remove any pop rivets or the channel division between the rear quarter glass and window.

All I did was unfasten the upper screw and lower bolt on the channel division slide quarter glass down as far as it will go then tilted the Channel division back towards the quarter glass, slid the window in carefully to the reach of lowered glass to regulator screw point, inserted rubber bush thing and screwed back up inserted weather channels, and bobs your aunty, one working window replaced after the idiotic car thieves.

Thinking I may put a sticker saying break other side for entry as I have a spare for every other one but not the passengers now...................

Makes me glad I have manual windows. I swapped the rear glass on both sides for tinted glass in less than an hour and a half. Start to finish.
