The operation of side windows may either be done through turning the hand cranks or pressing a button. There are also some other vehicles that have sun blinds for both the rear side and the rear windows. Windshields have the purpose of protecting from debris when running.

Acquire the new glasses. Most nearby hardware stores are selling the materials that are needed in this replacement. If living in Frisco TX, there are also hardware stores selling the same products. You can also buy from online retailers or from the junkyards. Before buying the materials, consider on those important things such as choosing the right products for the car, so better check the year, model, and the make.

Remove those items that are screwed into the panels of the doors. The items may include armrests, manually operated cranks, door handles, and other items that are screwed into a door. In some cases, the screws are covered by the caps which will match the cars door. Usually, the caps are being peeled out through using the flathead screwdriver.

Removing panels of doors. A tool is produced specifically for the purpose of prying up the panel and it is also available for purchase in the auto stores. One alternative for the tool is just the flathead screwdriver. When prying, the toll is inserted between the panels and the doors. Do not stop on prying until you can loosen the tabs connecting the bottom doors and panels. After prying, lift away the parts. Take note that when replacing power windows, check the connection between the power motor and the track before the disconnection of wires.

Remove your old window. Generally, an old window can be lifted right out. Be sure to be very careful when it is cracked or broken. Be sure also that all the pieces are removed when it is broken. Then after, install a plastic guide to the hole. This step may be performed only when necessary.

Slide glass into track. A newly purchased window should slide into the door track. After this step, make sure to reconnect all those electric connections which are disconnected in the previous steps. Reconnect also the hand cranks. Through this, you can be able to test the operations and also, to ensure that there is a smooth replacement.

Replace the panels. Hang first the top of a panel at the top of a door. Get the screwdriver then pop the bottom tabs of panel to its place in the bottom part of door. Then reconnect as well all the disconnected parts of door panels before you will remove it.

Two common factors that would most likely affect the replacement cost are the car type and glass type. It may also be affected by the type of a seller company. Costs may become higher as well if you prefer to purchase the molded glasses.
