3) Temporarily reconnect the power window switch (if equipped).
4) For power windows, operate the power window switch to raise/lower the door window until the glass bolts can be seen.

6) Remove the glass bolts.
7) While holding the door window, raise it at the rear and pull the glass out of the sash toward the outside of the door.






Installation

Installation is in the reverse order of removal.






- Check the glass for proper fit. Follow the FITTING INSPECTION procedure.
- On the drivers door, reset the motor (if equipped). Follow the SETTING AFTER INSTALLATION procedure.

Fitting Inspection

- Check that the glass fits securely into the glass run groove.
- Lower the glass slightly [approximately 10 to 20 mm (0.39 to 0.79 in)] and check that the clearance to the sash is parallel. If the clearance between the glass and sash is not parallel, loosen the regulator bolts, guide rail bolts, and glass and guide rail bolts to adjust the glass position.
