remove winder handle, arm rest etc, then remove the door card. vacuum / remove ALL broken glass from the bottom of the door & along the window track, there's probably a couple of bolts on the window rack holding the bottom of the window in place, loosen them. Put new glass in & re-assemble.

Personally I havent replaced a window but from having a few doors apart etc that seems the logical steps to me

sounds exaclty the same as my ae101.

depends wether you have electric windows, speakers tho.

also i think levin/trueno door cards are one piece so they have the arm rest incorporated.

to remove the door card you just lever it off

Where the $&#$% is that oil leak coming from /club
