- Do you have a car door glass that needs replaced? If you do, then you’re in luck. In this video, Johnny is gonna show you how quick and simple it is to replace a door glass. It only takes a phillips screwdriver, ten millimeter socket, trim tool, and 30 minutes of your time. - [Voiceover] Okay, the first thing I’m doing here is removing the duct tape and Plexiglass. This

is what I put in there until I could get a side glass for it. And this held up for, you know, quite a long time, did it’s job, served it’s purpose. But now it’s time to take it out. And now I’m getting a small flathead screwdriver, and I’m removing the small glass chunks, 'cause this tempered glass breaks into small little pieces, and you don’t wanna have any of those piece inside that

channel ‘cause that will rub up against the new glass when you put it in. Now I’m removing a clip right there, it’s just a small clip that helps hold the door panel on. So I’m gonna pop it out. And now, I’m gonna get a phillips screwdriver and the rest, a lot of this is phillips, there’s a couple phillips screws, and there’s one in the door handle right here, I’m gonna take that

out. Move that. And I wasn’t sure, I couldn’t remember, and I’m gonna check down here, I thought there might be one down there, but there’s not. But I check down here on the armrest and there’s one so I’m gonna go ahead and remove that one. And again, that is a phillips screwdriver, or phillips screw, which requires a phillips screwdriver. Now I’m just fooling around the bottom, sometimes there’s some screws that may be attached down

there, there’s not on this one, but I just wanted to make sure before I start trying to pull clips with the trim tool. Now I’ve got this trim tool, I got this from Eastwood, it works really good. 'Cause some of them you just pry, but this one you actually squeeze and it pops it apart which makes it a lot easier than your traditional trim tools I really like this one. So what

I’m doing, I’m going around the door, I’m locating those trim panel clips, and then I’ll pull it apart and that will help prevent from breaking them because these clips, you know, they’re available, you can get them, but there’s a lot of different ones, sometimes it’s hard to find the right one, and you know, they do cost, so I’m trying to be careful not to break any of these clips. So I’ve got

all the clips loose, and now I’m removing the door handle part there, get it out of the way. And got that removed, just kinda showing you that piece. And now I continue to take the door panel off. Now the armrest, there’s gonna be some screws under there so that pulls up on one end, it’s got a metal clip that clips down in there right there and then the other end just

has a lever that slides under that and underneath that arm, there’s another phillips screw to remove. So I’m removing that. Now I’m just kinda determining if anything is still holding that on so I can tell the door panel is loose. And now I’m just gonna lift out and up. And this door panel will come off. Now I still got the power windows and the lock holding that in place and I’m gonna have to

remove that. Remove the plastic that’s covering the door so I can access the bolts of the window end. Right now, I’m taking the wires off that hold the regulator in, I’ll take that loose so I can take the door panel off, but then I’m gonna put it back on so I can roll the window up and down, you know, to get the regulator in the right place to remove the bolts for

the window. There’s a tweeter right here that was in the way so I wanted to remove that, just took a couple screws to get that out. Now once I got that out of the way, I can remove this plastic and now I have access to the hole that’s inside the door panel so that I can see the bolts that hold the window regulator in. And the window regulator, this is what

is the 10 millimeter, this is where you’re gonna need the 10 millimeter socket and ratchet So now I’m gonna plug this back in to get, you can see that regulator moving up and down there, and that’s just the motor moving that regulator up and down. But I want to position that to where it’d be easy to get to. So I’m looking at it, trying to find out where that place is

at, right there looks pretty good. But to get to that second bolt, I think I’m gonna have to raise it just a little bit so right there I can get to both of them, I just pointed to them. So now I’m gonna get my 10 millimeter socket and ratchet. And I’m gonna remove those two. Now this has the two pieces of the side glass, the old one and I don’t

need those pieces because the new glass has those on there, so really this is just a bolt on glass. You unbolt the old one and you bolt the new one back on. The windows on this are really pretty easy. You see that one piece that I took off which is a plastic piece but it’s glued to the window, the side glass. Now I’m getting my ratchet in there to take the other

one off. Now I’ve got that one, I can remove that. And now I am ready to get the other glass, put it in. See that I dropped that piece there, I’ll pick that up here in a little bit. Now what I’m doing is I’m making sure places I couldn’t get to inside the door panel, that channel where the glass runs up and down, I’m getting that small flathead screwdriver and making sure

that there are no more chunks of glass. I’m basically just knocking them out and they’re falling to the bottom of the door which we’ll address that in a little bit. I wanna make sure all small chunks of glass are removed so that doesn’t interfere with the new glass rolling up and down. You can see those plastic pieces that’s already inserted on this glass so now I’m just gonna drop the glass

in at an angle and then make sure that it slides into both tracks, you know, on the front and the rear of the door. Now I’ve got it in place, now all I need to do is align those plastic inserts up with the window regulator. Once that’s aligned up, I can put the bolts in. So I’m getting it set, getting it where it should be, and now I’m grabbing the bolts and

I’m just gonna put them back in. You may have to raise the window up or down a little bit to get that just right. Now I’m getting my 10 millimeter socket and ratchet and I’m gonna snug this up, I don’t want to get it too tight yet, until I get the other one in. Once I get both bolts in, then I can tighten them. And again, you wanna get these snug, you

don’t wanna just crank down on them as hard as you can or you might strip something. So first I’m just gonna hand snug them. And now I’m gonna test it before I put the door panel on, you know, you wanna make sure that it does run up and down properly the way it should, it’s not hitting any chunks of glass. And also before I put the door panel on, I want

to vacuum it out, there’s a bunch of broken glass in the bottom here from when it broke, also from the pieces I knocked out with that screwdriver, so I wanna make sure all the glass is out from inside the door, if not, it’s gonna rattle. You wanna be sure to put your barrier back on 'cause this helps prevent wind and things like that from entering into the passenger compartment. And I’ve

got to remove the electrical component again so that I can get the door panel back on properly, so I remove that, the electrical connection. And now I’m just making sure that the barrier’s on. And it usually will stick on pretty good 'cause it has a self-stickiness to it, but there’s a few places that was a little bit loose, so I’m gonna use just a little bit of duct tape to go

over that area, just to make sure that it makes a good seal, a good fit. There’s just a few places that needed a little additional adhesive to hold it in place. Okay, I’ve got that back on, now I’ve got the door panel and basically you’re just gonna reverse the process. I’m running the wires through where they should go and then I’m going to, and again, it’s the tweeter, almost forgot to

put that on so I’m gonna make sure that’s screwed on before I put the door panel on. And I have done things like that before, you know, got something on and oh man, I forgot to put something in, I almost did here, but a couple screws to get that tweeter speaker in. So I get that screwed on. Now once that’s screwed on then I can put the door panel on. Before

you snap the door panel in, you wanna make sure that the wires, that they are going through to the correct opening, so that’s what I’m doing right here, making sure they go through properly. And once that’s done, you wanna set the top of the door panel on so that it latches over the top. Push down, and then I’m gonna pop all those clips back in. Once all the clips are secure

and the door panel is back on, I can start putting the phillips screws back in. There’s that one underneath the armrest there, get that one on. I get the part that goes around the door handle on and then I can put the screw back in that area. All the screws on this was phillips which made it simple. And the bolts for the regulator was 10 millimeter, so it really doesn’t take

many tools to do this side glass, and it’s really something simple that anyone can do. Now I’m just reversing the process of putting that on. And that back part, it just pushes in the front and snaps into the back. Okay, just finishing up what I, you know kinda reverse what I did with the door handle on, you know the screws that go there and you know, put the armrest parts back

on and that will wrap this up. Pretty simple, simple process, but… If you like this video, be sure and give us a thumbs up, give us a like. I’d appreciate it if you’d share this with others and thanks for watching this video and all videos, I really appreciate it. One last thing I wanna mention, make sure that it still rolls up and down correctly. - Don’t forget to head on over to CollisionBlast.com.
