Merle Coggins Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 They are held in with Setting Tape. I used a little heat to soften the rubber and gently pulled the metal frame off of the glass. Installation is a bit tougher. The side window wasn't bad... just lube up the new Setting Tape with soapy water and slip the glass into place, and hold it in place until everything dries out. On the vent windows I fought with them until I got ticked off, then had my glass guys set them into the frames. Merle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bergy Posted January 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Thanks bro I'll give it a try appreciate all the good information I have a good day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bergy Posted January 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 I tried to heat it up real hot on the vent windows to try to get the glass out I got a real high and put it in a vice and I still couldn't pull the glass out. I don't want to have to bust the glass out. Maybe I'll try to center trick thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
