Thank you for your video. I work in a body shop in the UK and this is the first time I've had to replace the door on this car. The trim and window removal was a great help, thank you so much. You take care.
Yes 👏 👏 your back brother! If you could make videos on removing rear view mirror covers and it’s components on your jobs that would me awesome ☺️. Thank you for your videos man they’ve helped me a lot. Stay safe
The rear c pillar and the bracket are one piece. I have to replace mine and the part came attached to the bracket. So I believe you were not supposed to pull it apart. Other than that great video. Thanks.
How do you release the glass from the lower track clip? You inadvertently clicked new glass into place and wanted to remove glass to clean more. I try slipping a thin pry between glass and clip but still can’t seem to release glass to raise it up and out of door. Any help suggestions appreciated. Once i get glass out I can replace b pillars covers
You do not want to pull on the C-Pillar trim piece. That piece runs down into the door and provides the channel for the window rubber track to rest in (the "tail" on the rubber seal). There are four screws, three in the upper trim and a fourth inside the door. You didn't remove that and that's why the piece broke. To remove the trim pivot it to about 10 o'clock a lift out. The reason the window was tilting was the window wasn't seated in the channel. As it rises, it'll catch and then start to shift front up/back down. You can look down from the top and see if they window is slotted. It usually catches on outboard side. A little silicone spray helps too.
@@backonmyrs1041 the OE part 95B.853.589 is bonded plastic, you can see the bond line when he breaks off the cover. I've done two cars (both sides) to refresh the C-pillar trim. After I R&R'd the first one, I pulled it apart to see if it was possible to separate the trim piece to avoid taking the door panel off, but when I did the bonding pulled up 3/4 of the way and then sheared off with the remaining 1/4 bonded firmly to the piece.
@@johnwaynecarlson5391How long does this repair take for each side? I'm doing mine this weekend. There are no videos on just the c pillar replacement.
@@MIII-si4uz I think the first time took me about an hour on one side as I went super slow, half an hour on the other. The second time I had one side go great and the other had a fiddly issue with the window track that took a couple of attempts to get right including my own stupidity when I realized I forgot to put the rubber cover back on before I put the door panel back on (OOPS!).
Not sure if you watched the whole video? But it had double sided tape on it from the factory. Hence why i said to watch the video before attempting this job. (I did think it broke apart but nope) Other then that i did not break a single thing on this job.
Double sided tape is a factory standard even on ‘high end’stuff. I see double sided tape from factory on Lexus, Porsche, Audi, Mercedes’, etc. double sided tape isn’t a bad thing.
When you haven't worked on a particular vehicle yet......... Just GOOGLE "how to remove_________________." That customer has probably had to have the entire door card replaced at a dealership, after how you chose to pry and gouge it off the metal structure. Speaker covers, meet points, and tolerances that were once silent, and taught. Were undoubtedly rattling, buzzing, and squeaking like crazy after they trusted their vehicle in your hands.
Thank you for your video.

Мужик, молодец. Твое видео помогло мне при разборе двери и снятии стекла. Я убирал маленькую, но очень нехорошую вмятинку PDR в очень неудобном месте.

Dumb comment

Ive seen double sided tape on bentleys. Its normal on any maker of cars unfortunately
What if the window does not want to stay up?
you freakin butchered it on removal... there are videos that show where all the screws are.
@@zhpregistrynet if there were videos on this i wouldn’t have made this lol 🤔
