Hello all. Recently got my FC project car running, thanks to lurking on this forum. I'm trying to put the door back together, and I can't get the glass in the window. Is there a trick to this? One would think that you'd just have to get the right angle, and it'd slip right in. Are you supposed to put it in from the inside, or outside? We assumed it'd be from the inside, but you never know.

Oh, and yes, I tried searching, but the search seems to be down.

Thanks kids

You slide it in from the outside, front part first and then tilt the rear part in. Make sure that the window is positioned in the guides on both front (at the mirror) and backside (at the doorhandle).

 

try it in every position u know....one of them is bound to work....applies to other things in life as well

 

are you supposed to install the window guides first, or after you put the glass in? Maybe taking the rear guids out will give me some more room...

 

The glass goes out & in with the guides in place.
Like "deevoius" said - from the outside, front edge lower the rear, then finagle it in.

(I love that word - finagle..)

 

edit - double post..

 

And finagle I did! Thanks guys, my car now has a window.

It also has a dead MAF, but that's another topic...
