HOW TO REMOVE a QUARTER WINDOW, DIY STYLE

[@afahoflegend]

How do you get the extra glass off the inner part of the rubber weatherstripping?

[@alpha2daquest885]

Nice work. Specially doing all by yourself. Can the molding around the glass be replaced without removing the glass. Im going to repaint my car and simply just want to change molding but dont want to remove glass. Thank you

[@Mechaniclyfe]

I was going to attempt the same thing but no it must be removed as there is a slot in the middle the the glass sits in

[@alpha2daquest885]

@@Mechaniclyfe Thank you for replying. I was afraid that would be your answer.

Admire your persistence and use of multiple tool use Chris. Keep moving forward brother!

[@Mechaniclyfe]

Thanks Kurt it wasn’t easy took me about 2 hours and plenty of curse words

[@raphaelkendy]

Chris, is it possible to remove the quarter window molding without damaging it? I'm from Brazil, and it's impossible to find a new one,.

[@Mechaniclyfe]

Yes it’s possible , with care you can pull it without damage

[@Mechaniclyfe]

You will need to pull the entire glass to take them out , the quarter window molding is still available in the USA I just ordered on myself

Also exacto knife with a bigher blade might help with cutting the adhesive.

🤣spatula. Love it! You're like me. We are resourceful and make things work

[@Mechaniclyfe]

Yes sir I would have used a spoon 🥄 of my gf wouldn’t yell at me lol , I use what I can 🤘🏻

[@dougpeirce726]

Using the grilling spatula was a great idea.

[@Mechaniclyfe]

Thanks it actually worked good too

[@moparnut6286]

Great job man have you ever tried the stainless steel wire method where you poke a hole in the urearthane and use the wire to saw all the way around HFT has a kit with the handles that hold the wire. There's even a plastic version called rip cord auto glass removal line.

[@Mechaniclyfe]

Yeah one of those packages is the tool with the string , I couldn’t feed it thru for the life of me I think because the quarter panel had a edge that would block the cord from going all the way thru .

[@sikdayy]

By any chance do you know how to remove a quarter panel ??

[@Mechaniclyfe]

Yes but I don’t have enough space to do it , depending on the car it may be a lot of work . A lot of drilling spot welds

[@SPIDERMAN2015]

It sucks they don’t make the seal for the quarter glass but definitely looking forward to taking the glass out

[@student7215]

I used a guitar strings, to cut the adhesive. It took me 4 strings to finally get the job done

[@JohnWD40TC02]

You did well to get that out without breaking it Chris, I've never done one and after seeing how hard it was I don't think I will even try 😂 Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the DV1, I love mine (also have the base gun and the DV1S) and have both caps I found the C1 is more like the T110 air cap and the C2 is similar to the TE20, I normally use the C1 with the 1.2mm nozzle and for me it gives a lovely flat finish but it's not the fastest gun out there 🙏👍 John UK

[@jeffreyeaton9934]

I've heard C1 is similar too the T110 & C2 is like the TE20 cap

[@Mechaniclyfe]

I’ve heard similar but people seem to like the tekna better

[@klx140Ldirtbiker]

Gotta remove my accord window, didn’t think I’d be going to Home Depot to buy a fucking spatula 🤣

[@Mechaniclyfe]

Lmao 🤣

[@deanbrown7643]

Plastic weld that cracked trim 😊😊

[@Mechaniclyfe]

Yeah I think I’m going to

[@deanbrown7643]

You lucky son of a gun brand new dv1 I'm jealous 😠😠😠

[@Mechaniclyfe]

Yeah this was ashley the painters gun then was sold to olie olie paintz then I purchased it from him. It’s in very good condition and with a c2 cap . I think I got a good deal it was less than my tekna

[@UselessOldman-gh2pf]

9 minutes. Still no window removed.... Cripes

[@deanbrown7643]

Did you get the civic from L.A. ?? If you did someone definitely tried stealing it 😂😂😂

[@Mechaniclyfe]
