how do i take the rear side windows out? i presume its easy?

i have done this before on my sr's but i just wedged a screw driver in and bent a part of the window frame and pushed the window out?

any good way thats not going to damage them?

work your way around the rubber seal pushing it back on itself under the metal lip on the shell :thumb: just remember to catch the glass when it falls out lol

No, get a length of thin wire, and wrap it (so to speak) around the rubber seal (into the slot/groove inthe seal), then where the two ends meet, tie a not in them BUT make sure its at the top of the window, in the centre.

Slot the base edge of the window into the shell, get a mate to hold the glass in place, un-knot it and whilst lightly leaning on the window pull the wire at a 9o degree angle to the car and it will pull the rubber out and over the metal lip on the shell :thumb:
