- I show how I figured out how to replace the rear, side window on my 2004 Chevy Silverado Extended Cab. The process is the same for 99-2006 Siverados and Sierras.

you are Awesome! thanks,for saving me maybe a couple hundred bucks! works great, on my 1999 GMC Sierra1500 Extended cab too ! just put the glass in today ,30 minuets Thanks for the Video!
Thank you and you are welcome! I'm glad you found the video helpful.
I have a 99 also... yeah.. that frame is GLUED IN!!... but, I got the replacement glass off Amazon... I guess I’ll try removing the glass off the frame and then popping it into place... that would be sweet if that works..
Didn’t want to have to heat up/cut thru that urethane... stuff is too strong ... could mess up the metal frame.. etc, etc..
I’ll try and see if this works
Popping it in and out of the frame was a cake walk. 30 min tops. Thanks for the video man. To be honest I didn’t have high hopes. But it worked. Cheers.
(Technical Tap) Meaning just tap until it locks in place and is professionally installed! I love it!!!
Thanks for the video! I didn't want to spend $350 for someone else to do what I could do. Now, I can fix it and have money to go camping!
Camping is definitely a priority! Glad I could help.
Ive been gearing up to do this to my 01 silverado for more than a year, complete with window pulled from salvage yard. Thanks so much for the tip of not needing to remove the whole frame!!
Glad I could help!
you actually entertained me while i was desperately trying to fix my truck! thank you my friend
Those clips on those panels are super delicate I broke 3 trying to remove it
Great video! I have a lot of experience in cutting windshields, quarter glass and back glass out. I've been wanting to do this for about 2 years or longer, just so that i could have privacy glass. Your're video was the best source I've seen. The only thing i did different, was spray glass cleaner on hinge and it required less effort to go together. Thanks for your help!
@@maxfraga2883 Thank you so much!
Thank you! You saved me a lot of grief by not having to remove entire window panel and the glue that comes with it.
Glad I could help!

thanks for this. saved me 200 bucks!
Thank you for doing this! I have a German Shepherd that ride in the back of my truck and your video in advertently showed me that I can take this window off for him and let him ride in the back with his head out the window as the universe intended. Thank you!
I'm hear for being able to just take them out too lol
That's why I'm here
lol I'm here same reason
Thanks to your video, I was able to locate the hinges and pry carefully with plastic pry bar and remove the window. I'm refinishing the door, and my first option was masking tape on. But after watching the video I decided to remove it,which is going to give me a better paint Job on it. Thanks again
Glad the video was helpful!
I could never trust myself enough to mess with the windows in any vehicle. Way to glass it boss 👌
That is why I made the video. If I can do it you can do it!
And I quote " those pieces of glass ore sharp". Helpful vid btw
Thanks for posting. I needed to figure out how to remove my rear ext cab door windows so I can paint my truck. Worked well! Didn't even have to remove the door panels
Exactly what I’m doing
I just did this job and when I was popping in the window, it wouldn’t go in. What I had to do was get help and push on and off real fast. Got it in in like 5 seconds each top and bottom. I also use silicon superlube which I believed helped.
Thanks for doing that. It was a little tough keeping up with your technical jargon but with the help off an encyclopedia and my old college physics book I was able to piece it together...
😆 thanks.
Thanks for this video. I just installed the window on my 2006 Chevy Silverado using your method. I hope it stays on. LOL.
Awesome! Mine has been going strong since last summer.
Did u use glue
Thanks man saved mecca whole lot of time and money I couldn't get it out at the junkyard so took the whole door then seen this and was afraid to try at first cause I didnt want to break the glass taking it out but it work and took me bout 5 mins to install
Awesome! So glad to hear.
Hey man thanks for saving me the headache of trying to replace the frame. Everything went well and I look like a hero lol!!!! You da man
Thanks for the video, just saved myself some cash. The Technical tap got it done.
Glad to hear it. The technical tap is often helpful.
I really like this method, going to try it on my latest acquisition - a 2003 2500HD extended cab. Removing the frame looks like a HUGE pain, and unnecessary in most cases.
Hello Scott, just want to say thanks for the awesome job and thanks for sharing. As you mentioned at the beginning, there is no thorough content covering this topic. I saw an upload of the glass just being glued on to the metal and the plastic frame was disregarded. Thanks again, you have a new sub.
Thanks so much! Mine still hasn't fallen out!
I didn't see anything covering a 2007 Sierra 2500 HD slt ext cab back push out window. Hope we didn't waste our money and time prying out be from a 2006 HD2500 at the junk yard... Help Scott
Exactly what I needed. Thanks for your time for posting this! I rarely “like” videos, but this one got my like.
Very much appreciated. Glad it was helpful.
I know how to install these windows with the frame you just unscrew the screws that are behind the panel and then carefully cut through the urethane. Then you got to peel all the urethane off of the metal and clean it up real good with acetone let it dry then you get some urethane from your local automotive store and boil it in hot water in a pan in the kitchen once it's been in there for 15 or 20 minutes it'll be more than soft enough to stick in your regular caulking gun and you squirt a bead all the way around the perimeter of where the old urethane was stick your frame and your glass all at once in the opening with the glass latched and then you apply the three screws and you should put some blue or green frog tape around the outside of the window so it doesn't shift if you immediately have to use your truck if you can afford to wait overnight you're better off then you put your door panel on.
Thanks for the info!
I don't have a broken window but wind noise on both sides of my 2000 Silverado. Not sure how to adress wind noise on these. Any ideas?
@@dad-jd8fj You might try reconditioning the rubber seal.
This is exactly what information I was looking for. My window latch was broken and I got both a window and frame for it at junk yard paint about 60 dollars. I have to take off my frame to install the new one and this information is very very helpful thank you!!!
i just watched your video . going to replace soon . THANKS!
Glad I could help!
Replaced my rear passenger door but now tint is different I wanted to go back tomorrow for only the glass on the drivers side rear door so both would match but couldn’t figure out how to swap windows out. until your video so now I can’t wait to give this a try let’s just hope that glass is still there on that door 🤞
Glad I could help!
My 96 gmc passenger side got hit by a bird and broke it. I wanted to replace it with a stationary glass. I looked everywhere to find out how2.But to no avail I decided to try it myself. After taking all the inside panels and everything off,I found there was no need what so ever to do.I took a sawzall and cut the three brackets off . All I had to do is put the window adhesive strip on and that was it. I wish someone would have told me that to start with. Thank you for your video. I hope my input will save someone a lot of time and labor.
Great video! Thanks!
I heated the receiver slots on the frame a bit with a heat gun before I popped the glass into them. I figure when they cool they'll snug down onto the hinges nice and tight.
Great idea! Thanks for sharing.
How did it work out?
@@ifscottcanyoucan Sorry, didn't see your question. Seems great, watertight, I'd call it a success!
Thanks for your inspiration. Local glass guy quoted $100. I did it for nothing, past the purchase price for the replacement.
@@wynder15 That is great to hear!
Heating with a heat gun is very smart. I did it too and it was magic. Thanks
I've had duct tape on mine for months now thanks to hinge fears. THANK YOU
Glad I could help. Spread the word!
I think it’s called a sheet metal screw because of the coarse threads?? 😂 I’m still watching, but judging by the comments, I need to study this video. Thank you for doing this!!
Thanks for watching!
Great video, i just received my order from the same place today. Hoping to replace it shortly. Thanks
Glad the vid was helpful!
Wow! First DIY video to reach 1000 views! Thanks everyone!
Try 80k views thanks man
100,000 views!!! Glad I could help.
Hey, my name is Scott too. Great video.
Lol, Technical tap. We call it percussive maintenance. Thanks for the video!
Trade lingo! Glad you enjoyed the vid.
Thank so much this helped me fix my 96 that had the same problem
Glad to hear it!
Cool, took me 5 minutes to do on my 02 Silverado
Awesome! Hope my video helped.
Thanks buddy this helped immensely
You are welcome. I'm really glad I made this video. It seems to have helped a lot of people.
Great job now I got to do is find a window
Junk yard or Ebay.
I shooould replace mine because it's leaking but I will get the AVS rain guards instead ;p even they ain't look that good lol.
Thank you for the video
3,000 views! Thanks for all the support everyone. It has been 6 months and the window is still working great with no leaks. Please comment if this video was helpful and dont forget to subscribe.
Thank you we went to pick n pull today after our 2007 siera hd 2500 slt back drverside window fell out and broke. I had seen it was going to and didn't know what else to do to hold window into frame once the thing was broken but I had truck that day and had to do something to save it from filling out so I bungie corded it from bottom inside and across to passenger side headrest stilts. It worked until son had truckvtok it off and sure enough it fell out. Nevertheless the coverage here doesn't include the 2007 only to 2006. An you are right there is barely any info on those push out windows. Research cones back on everything but clarity on compatibility, models with power windows switch replacement for electric window even punching in what we know about truck comes back with nothing but 31 model trim types is ridiculously inacurate as far as we were concerned. Ours is a 5th wheel hauler we got our window from a 2006 hd2500 Sierra but it was a bear to get out and was glued in to frame which got left there because ours is still in truck. Now we can see if it will work on guessing there was another reason it felt out from frame.
Nevertheless you are definitely hitting a glacier for consumes not finding research at all
Thank you
@@yvettemeza3384 Thank you for sharing. Glad I could help!
How does the latch attach to the window do I need a new one? The one on the truck has broken glass on it I was going to try to reuse it .
@@b0ltCS2 the latch came already attached to the new window.
Still no news on leaks or anything?
WOW!!!!! 2000 views! Thanks everyone for all the support.
Is it still in?
@@roberttayloe1063 It sure is!
Sounds like it's same stuff they use to hold windshields in place.
Did this leak air after doing this I gotta back window that's leaking air but it was like that when I bought it
Mine leaks a little but no more than the original. I might try conditioning the seal with spray silicone.
Did you ever get the air leak fixed? I have the same air leak at the rear window.
Almost 7k views nice job
Thanks!
Mine won’t pop into the tabs completely and keep coming loose...
You might have to replace the whole unit.
I have to watch this a couple more times because that's just too darn easy and I don't want to break good glass. Popping it in there with a "tech bump" is one thing but "tech bumping" it out is my new dilemma. And I'm skeered LOL
So it's just a matter of over extending the hinge a bit and it pops off. Still nervous and not attempted this yet.
It's not aggreeing. I think that the frame in the door is trapping it from opening enough to pop off. Now popping in on may not be as critical.
Make sure you disconnect the closer. I never had to pop the old one out because it shattered. If you open the window and push the whole thing up you may have better luck.
Removing good glass seems be be a different monster. I'd rather tug on a juckyard truck than mine. It looks so easy when it opened all the way and released itself. The door itself is keeping the window from opening further and I think that binds up the hinge. I will win though because thick black sign vinyl will go there.
Subscribed Too!
Can't believe that the glass just clips on and off on one side to the frame.
I was surprised as well how it was designed. It was hard to tell at first if it really grabbed on. Been several months and it seems to be clipped in well.
I'm looking at mine now, wanting to remove the undamaged glass so I can do a black out film. But I'm skeered I might break it trying to pop it out. LOL
@@CORYJOHNM I was too but once I got it out and saw how it was put in I realized how easy it was.
Machine screw has machine threads, those re called sheet metal screws.
Thanks. Now I know!
Both my rear windows are leaking. Seems like its the seal between the windownand the frame. Cant seem to find that seal anywhere. Any suggestions? Last ditch effort would be to permanently glue the window onto the frame which is not ideal.
Id try adhesing foam to the rubber. The window insulation type. Shouldnt cost too much to buy, and it may save you from sealing the windows permanently. Although honestly I have never noticed a ventilation benefit on mine
Whats the piece called around the window the plastic that you were hitting so it would snap into place
I called it a "hinge". Not sure if that is the right term.
My truck was stolen a few months ago what they did was pry that window off and broke the thing on the window that connects it to that hinge or whatever it connected to. Window is fine but the guy who does my auto glass said I needed to buy a brand new rear window, I was wondering if I could use clear silicone or sealant for now, it’s attached by tape at the moment and it makes my truck look raggedy, it also starts sagging down after a while cause the high temperatures we have in south texas
I personally think you would be better off getting a new window that has the plastic piece still attached at a salvage yard. A weak adhesive might not hold the window in place and a stronger one may leave damage behind.
Hey im just trying to figure out the point of removing the door panel. Why do that if you can take the frame off the window and just shove it on there?
I thought, at first, that I was going to replace the entire unit. Had to take the door panel off to assess the situation. Once I realized what a pain in the butt it would be, I started brainstorming other options. As it turns out, the new window and latch fit the old frame.
Mines not busted out but the lock handle broke off I was wondering if if could just replace that & reclip the glass back to the frame?🤔
I don't see why not.
I just want to know if these windows can be converted to be able to roll the down
No. The 99-06 do not have the ability to roll down. They are fixed in the frame.
Ty
Yw
What is part # for replacement window/frame?
I honestly don't know. It's been a couple years. Just look up rear door window for your truck.
Did the window stay in with no problem? I would much rather do this method then doing the whole frame. I have a 05 gmc sierra ext cab
It has been a year and a half. No leaks. I have kids so the window is used often.
Awesome hey thanks alott man appreciate it!
I had to order a new window because of getting locked out and ended up breaking the button that the latch locks into to get in....Should have just paid a locksmith lol I didn't realize how hard it is to find the rest of the parts like the seal and window clip frame cause my new window has nothing on it not even the new button.
When I ordered mine it came as the whole window, frame and all. I just removed the glass part that already had all the necessary hardware and popped it in.
Milestone! My first "thumbs down".

What bed cover do you have any link ?
@@DailydriverHTX I have a Tyger tonneau cover. www.amazon.com/s?k=tyger+tonneau+cover&i=automotive&adgrpid=57618108138&gclid=CjwKCAiAuK3vBRBOEiwA1IMhuiBhkr_oHmlpSD6U1e2d9AEvNUUjeYn2JKMAWLaYj_6jbsZF1TsGlBoCJtgQAvD_BwE&hvadid=274738585915&hvdev=m&hvlocphy=9017325&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t2&hvqmt=e&hvrand=618323740158005092&hvtargid=kwd-296493978120&hydadcr=19226_9707001&tag=hydsma-20&ref=pd_sl_86pythaa31_e
so they dont make just the window seal by itself??
Just the glass part? Not for sale by itself. You might be able to find one in a junk yard.
What’s that stuff called at the very end you sprayed to make it lock?
I think it was spray silicone.
@@ifscottcanyoucan could this window be permanently sealed?
@@JayJay-jc5or Maybe but I have no idea how
No glue?
The glass is in a frame and that frame is on hinges that connects to the door frame.
Those two bolts I have to take off are self taped In so I can’t take my panels odd
That it odd.
@@ifscottcanyoucan yes Ik I’m gonna try the method to take the window off the old frame but I can’t un do the clip on the new window it didn’t show in in the video
How did it work out?
Is it possible to convert to power windows?
It is not possible to convert the rear window on this generation of truck to power. It is possible to convert manual roll down windows to power with a kit that is available from most aftermarket suppliers.
Were did you get the window and track from
www.ebay.com/str/lilyautoglass
Does this window go up and down??
Not on this model. It is a 2004 Chevy Silverado extended cab. I think they do on the crew cab.
Where did u get that cover for the bed of the truck
Amazon. The brand is Tyger tonneau covers.
@@ifscottcanyoucan is it guaranteed no water gonna her back there
I don't know of a guarantee but I can tell you I have had mine foe 4 years and it does a great job of keeping the water out. I sometimes get a little water near the tailgate.
Did it ever fall out??
Nope! Still in place!
Anyone ever converted these windows to electric?
They don't roll down.
Where did you order the glass from ??
I put a link in the description.
I got one off amazon... now to install it.. got the old glass off.. what a mess
@@Jlinwoodjackson great! Let us know how it goes. Feel free to include any helpful tips.
Machine screws
It takes me a while but I get there eventually. 😆 🤣
lmao glass is sharp
Did it ever fall off while you where driving? LoL
It has never fallen out and my kids use that window all the time!
@@ifscottcanyoucan then you
Koo
That wasnt the right way to do it u will have air leaks and water leaks
It has been over 6 months and not a single drop of water has gotten in. It may not be the established way to do it but it worked for me. I appreciate your comment.
2 years with no leaks!
Ok what is the right way to do it to stop air leaks?
Fuck I got a 94 Sierra and thief’s popped mine off what’s the best way I should go about fixing that? Have been having trouble with finding someone who can do it and parts aren’t made 🥲
They don't make a rear window and frame for a 94 Sierra? Try a junkyard. You could install it yourself or take the part to a mechanic.
