    This always owns me.

    Can somebody help? My brain is not capable (yet) of figuring this out by just looking at it, and I can't find any hints online anywhere. And I don't really want to just randomly start unbolting crap since I don't want to screw up anything inside the door for the person who's getting it.


    I need to get the glass out of this door but I'm not really sure what I need to loosen to get the glass free.


    Can anyone start me off, give me some direction?

    Much appreciated.



    (You can kinda see I've already undone the little bracket at the top left of the door)

    Thanks. Exactly what I'm looking for. Apparently, I'm missing several large sections of the FSM for my RS.

    I usually use a centerpunch or a windshield saw, but that may not work for what you want. It will remove the windows in a hurry though ;)

    lol. Yeah, trying to keep the glass in one piece and reusable/resellable.

    I always forget about rolling the window down to access the bolts (all of the 3 or so times I've attempted this, ha).


    Anyway, success. FWIW, I was able to remove the window by only undoing a couple pieces circled below. It gave me enough room to squeeze the window out without too much change of scratching it.

    Also, I couldn't undo this screw for the life of me. Couldn't figure it out. Would only turn 1/4 turn in either direction. That's it. Absolutely would not turn further either way. So, I couldn't get the mirror assembly off or anything. Is there some trick?

    What, no jokes about Tony's passengers' melons?
