Well, woke up this morning and found my drivers side window busted out and glass everywhere on the inside! Bastards!!
Fortunatley i found a replacement already with some of the bracket still mounted on the glass. I have the door panel off and im checking this out and it seems to me that i have to drill out the factory rivots going through the glass and remove those bushings. i would have to do this to the replacement window also. I think i would need a different type of bushing to install the replacement glass. One that i can but a screw in to hold the glass in. i noticed on the passenger side, the rivots aren't there. There are phillip head screws in there place. I think that window was busted out several years ago and then it was fixed through insurance at a glass company. I guess my question is am i right on this? Do i use the existing bushings over again and just use screws to fasten the glass in? Will i have to remove any of the weather stripping to get the glass in. (I kinda think i do). Is this going to be to difficult for a Plumber? ( Just Kidding ) I wont start til i hear from someone here.
