Can you give any advice on how to get the new window off the old vehicle at the junkyard. What to use? Work from the inside or outside? Stuff like that..
This was definitely the hardest part, and I wish I would've filmed it. I just used a utility knife and kept swapping out blades to make sure I was using something sharp. They make long handled utility knives which I'm told work a lot better. I started on the outside of the window and cut as close as I could to the metal behind the rubber grommet. Then I went inside, removed all the plastic around the window and did the same thing. I kept pressing on the window so I could tell it was getting loose and eventually the window started detaching from the pinch weld. The goal is to not cut the outer rubber, but only cut through the window weld epoxy used to put it on.
@@thomascrow8510 No problem. This is a urethane utility knife, might work a little easier than a regular utility. amzn.to/3WJldBY (Affiliate Link) It's designed to do the urethane on car windows. Good luck!
WOW "for not being a window technician you really did a good job.
Thanks Tammy!
