How to tape a broken car window

[@joaquingarcia5850]

I had my doubts about tape, but watching your video gave me confidence to go and do it, thanks.

[@YeahBuddy]

Right on! Thanks for watching! How did it go?

[@kellywilliams8928]

I did this and it kept my car dry through two nights of rain. Best video out there.

[@YeahBuddy]

Dang! Happy this little trick worked for you and provided double coverage! Cheers to you and thank you for this comment!

[@savannataylor226]

This is exactly what I needed to read cause mine just got broke this morning and all my babies stuff was stolen with other stuff

[@sunshine32151]

12/13 - THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO, this morning, single lady at home. window won't go up. what to do.. what to do..until I can find out who to fix, i saw your video. this is a temporary fix but it saved the day for me.

[@YeahBuddy]

Oh!!! Amazing! Glad it was helpful you and will keep you out of the elements as you drive. Have a fantastic day!

Thank you for sharing this. My car window stopped working this morning. Had to figure something out before work. Was going to go with a plastic bag. This helps out, that way I can see

[@YeahBuddy]

Thanks for watching! Glad this worked for you. Sorry about your window. Big bummer!

[@hunterhansen9956]

its funnny everyone watching this probably has a broken window

[@YeahBuddy]

Absolutely!!!! That’s how we got into this mess of walking my video. This may be a good way to track broken window crime stats, count how many views this video has.

[@taliglen8696]

😂

[@sylviaanne1642]

Thank you for this life hack. I was hit by a deer this morning and it took out both my windows on the drivers side. This seems like a better solution than the trusty loud bag just flapping in the wind

[@YeahBuddy]

Oh my! So sorry you hit a deer. 🦌 the bag is not ideal, which is why the tape solution worked for me. Should be a good temp fix for you. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@bfdsixtyfour6969]

Just found my window broken into this morning and we’re having a snow storm right now.. so much for a car alarm..

[@YeahBuddy]

Ugh….so sorry. There have been multiple break ins per week on my block. Police haven’t been able to stop the guy. Hope the tape works as a temp fix for you.

[@tbone7896]

Same happened today

[@shelbypayne4182]

Same, it’s -10

[@TheAllEncompassingEye]

Car alarms only go off if they open the door, not windows. I've had all my windows broken at some point and the alarm never went off.

[@Amogus-zx8kg]

​@TheAllEncompassingEye not true. My fiat car had the alarm go on like crazy when i broke th3 small window to retrieve my keys

[@TondreaJackson]

Shock! I hit the button for my back window and it stopped working "after" going down part way. Thank you for the tip. I am implementing your tip now. 😊

[@YeahBuddy]

Oh no!!!! Why can’t windows break in the up position lol. This should get you by until it’s fixed! Thanks for watching :)

[@nottodaylilbaldhead]

My van window fell into the door so I needed a fix. I used cling wrap and clear tape. Thanks dude.

[@YeahBuddy]

Cling wrap! That is a solid option and probably would have made it not sticky on the inside! ❤️ it!

[@sleetstv4947]

Thanks. Car got broken into last night and the plastic bag method didn’t work too well for me. Excited to try this out.

[@YeahBuddy]

Ufff! Sorry to hear about that my friend. Hope the tape works for you!

[@jefflebowski1000]

Bro! You do have me covered! Thanks for this!

[@YeahBuddy]

Awesome Big Lebowski!

[@cpeeteetuce1974]

Works great! Easy to remove & redo too if needed.

[@YeahBuddy]

@@cpeeteetuce1974 thank you so much for watching and your comment!

[@deborahpaulin1188]

Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

[@YeahBuddy]

You got it! Hope this temp fix works for you!

[@scottdsyoung2650]

Thanks This will do until the new glass comes in! I was doing it from the inside, but your method works better

[@YeahBuddy]

I mean, doing it from the inside would work. I had one viewer who indicated he did cling wrap first, then put tape over it :)

[@SHOTTAeastcoast]

Just happened to me. Cool you're in a cool enough mood yo make this video

[@YeahBuddy]

Ugh, sorry this happened to you. Was definitely a bummer. Happens all the time in my neighborhood!

[@shallteargf5974]

Thanks for the video. Fortunately (or not so much so) my car window was broken due to my own mistake but as i live in florida i cant have an open invitation to the storms that happen everyday to ruin my interior

[@YeahBuddy]

Oh no!!! So sorry that happened to you. Hope this is a good interim solution for you.

[@thai__land]

Someone just broke into my car today, while i was at work. Took my purse N everything i had in it. All important cards, money etc. i feel violated. Thsnks for your video headed to get some tape now!

[@YeahBuddy]

I’m so sorry, we had a lot stolen from our vehicle also when I filmed this video. Trying to make a little lemonade by helping others to temporarily fix their windows. Sorry that happened to you and hope you have a good week!

[@joshuamiller2627]

With that tape is it still easy to see out of my dad told me clear gorilla tape or would packing tape be better

[@YeahBuddy]

Thanks Josh! I believe what I used was packing tape. How did it turn out for you?

[@justyjumps]

So like one of the back windows caught a small rock and it looks all shattered but still 95% there should I tape over the glass or push all the glass out ?

[@YeahBuddy]

Ufff good question!!! If it were me, I’d probably ride it out as long as I could. But its structural integrity is compromised and could lead to a bigger issue the next time a rock hits it.

[@anthonyocasio1383]

I was about to put glad press and seal until I watched a video lol thank you so much

[@YeahBuddy]

Thanks for your comment and hope this temp fix works for you. Sorry you have a broken window.

[@cpeeteetuce1974]

So the sticky part is exposed on the inside or double taped?

[@YeahBuddy]

Up to you! I went around for a few days with it being sticky on the inside.

[@rioguttaful]

yea that's a great idea I have clear tape but never thought of that, the Saran wrap I used just look like I broke the window out of my own car 😅 tacky

[@YeahBuddy]

Oh no! Sorry to hear that. The tape was a nice temp fix for sure! Thanks for watching!

[@AdrianBravo-gb6sx]

What pisses me off the most is they broke my window for literally nothing just a few coins I had

[@YeahBuddy]

That is the worst! So sorry my friend.

[@AdrianBravo-gb6sx]

@@YeahBuddy it’s all good thanks

[@joshuasartor1320]

Happen to me on vacation to Florida woke up next morning lots of cops oustdie and like 10 car windows busted one of them was mine and my sister bf

[@joshuasartor1320]

[@savannataylor226]

What kind of tape is it

[@YeahBuddy]

I just picked up 3M packing tape because it’s clear. Hope it works for you! Thanks for watching.

[@joesmalls]

Thanks for the simple and informative video. just tried this... Woke up this morning and someone had smashed my window. Hopefully it holds up on the freeway LOL

[@YeahBuddy]

lol! Thanks for watching and the comment. Did it hold on the hwy?

[@joesmalls]

@@YeahBuddy yes it has! It's been like 3 days of freeway driving and occasional rain. I think it'll hold up until I can get it fixed proper

[@YeahBuddy]

@@joesmalls hey! Good news! Mine was fixed within 24 hours so happy yours is holding!

[@TheApolloFund]

No buddy! Sorry someone broke your window!

[@YeahBuddy]

Thanks GWB! All good!

[@StephanieWalker-q2w]

You can now replace the car window with the refrigerator shelf

[@YeahBuddy]

That sounds like a very interesting and delicious solution!

[@dmclean8404]

Thank you ❤

[@YeahBuddy]

You got it!

[@markgonzalez8828]

They broke into my truck today. They stole like 3k worth of stuff. Here to see how to temporarily fix my issue.

[@YeahBuddy]

Same happened to me six months ago or whenever I posted this video. Still a big bummer. Sorry it happened to you.

[@markgonzalez8828]

@@YeahBuddy I thought I was ok with it (accepting that I can’t do anything about it) after a nap I feel like poop 🫠😂 how long will this hold. I might have this for a couple of days

[@johnnyadams199]

Appreciate it bro 💯

[@YeahBuddy]

You got it! Thanks for watching and sorry you have a broken window. Far too many in my neighborhood recently.

[@savannataylor226]

Is it wether protected

[@YeahBuddy]

Temporarily! It will be as good as you tape it.

[@mthrfkr8739]

It’s actually bull shit we pay for window replacements whilst being victims of theft👀😂

[@YeahBuddy]

Yeah Buddy! 100% correct.

[@markstuber4731]

Does it work at highway speeds?

[@YeahBuddy]

Depends if you get the good tape! This is def not a permanent solution. Thanks for watching!

[@dannytang4561]

Watching this while my two windows are broken into to and have to drive 8 hrs home. Part takes 2 weeks for tesla part.

[@YeahBuddy]

Oh no! So sorry! Hope you get the windows replaced soon!

[@dannytang4561]

@@YeahBuddy took tesla 13 days to replace it. Gonna fly back and get the car.

i locked my keys in my car

No problem if you have a window like mine!

You are welcome!

[@contactusece7769]

That tape will peel your clear coat and paint in hot climates not good idea

[@YeahBuddy]

Thanks - definitely not a permanent solution. Appreciate the comment!

[@crystalchavez2554]

No you be jacked

[@YeahBuddy]

What are you talking about? That’s how I got a broken window in the first place lol. Someone smashed it. This is just a temp fix. Thanks for watching!

[@crystalchavez2554]

Dang I'll go crazy 🤪 I'll get one right away

[@Hi65250]

Bro but what happens when you open the door …..

[@YeahBuddy]

I placed the tape so that the door would function normally. Some cars may have a frameless window, making a tape job a challenge. On my van, that wasn’t the case. You’ll want to tape around the frame, but not tape the body of the vehicle, if possible. That way, the door will still open. Let me know if that helps.

[@ding9633]

The tape will never come off

[@YeahBuddy]

😂 if that were the case, I would have left the tape on and not repaired my window. Thanks for watching!
