For anyone who locks their keys in their car:
If you have to break a window to get in the car, pick a window that rolls up and down or opens and closes because it is bolted in and easily replaced in comparison. Just because a small triangle window is small doesn't mean it will be cheaper to replace. Sometimes those small windows are surrounded by exterior trim that can be extremely difficult to remove without damaging and may also need to be replaced when changing the glass. I've seen repair bills over $300 for a tiny window which is more than you would usually pay to replace a windshield. A rear passenger window is the furthest away from the driver seat and will leave less glass to sit in for the driver.
One note not mentioned in the video but was shown. The reason you try to only move the handles for the wire on the inside of the vehicle is because if you accidentally drag the wire across the edge of the paint on the outside it is going to come right off as that wire tends to get extremely hot from friction which helps cut through the adhesive.
You'd make a good father in law.
I am a mom of two boys, 22 yrs and 4 yrs. I think we get a bad rap because we just have to accept our sons (in my case) choices for girlfriends/wives. We have helped them grow guided them and then we just have to let go. It's difficult for some to let go. I am fortunate to have a big boy and a little boy. No problems letting go.
No fucking way my cobalt quarter glass just broke and this video comes up
Too many ads.
Id love to see ya show how to replace the little fixed window on a 4 door, the little window thats fixed (doesnt go up or down) behind the back seat door window.
Nice job Mike!!
Thanks Mike for sharing! This can save a lot of money!. Very curious about the windshield install. Dutch regards, Nico.
And my mother in law was a very nice person, very caring too. Unfortunately, she passed away 4 years ago, from Alzheimer disease :-((
I know you have your way of doing it, but to remove the glass would it not be easier and faster if you heated it up with an heat gun or hair dryer first?
I have zero experience with glass and don't know what I'm talking about, but I wonder if one of those oscillating multi tools would work good for this?
