Replacing passenger side window (just need quick advice)

Hey guys, my car was broken into last night and they busted the passenger side window. So i called a local Rotary shop and they said they had a parts car that i could come and pull a window from. So after work i'm going to go over there and remove it, but i'd never done it before so i was wondering if there are any special tricks that i should know? Any special tools? (I'm bringing an entire set of sockets and wrenches, some plyers, screw drivers)


Any quick responses would be appreciated. Its been a shitty day.

theres a C clip on the back of the window crank in between the plastic and the crank itself. after that there are 2 bolts holding the window in. once you have those out just slide the glass out thats in there out toward the outside of the car, then the new glass in from outside the car. the windowcrank should be in the half way up position the whole time.

Get a small piece of cloth, maybe some wire, wiggle it under the handle, and with a hand on each end "rock" it & pull from different directions until you catch & push the clip out of there. IIRC, I used a piece of .040 safety wire to get mine, and I think pulling toward the long part of the handle did the trick...
