its really easy. you just pull the rubber back along the B piller and the top. while gently pushing the window out. just moving back and forth all along the rubber gasket rolling it back over and over. eventuaLly you will start to get the whole gasket on the outside of the car. then you focus on getting the top corner on the outside and the top rounded part of the glass. once thats out you can just lift on the glass.

it took me about 3 minutes flat to get the window back in using a rope. and I was taking my time doing it solo.

if you look at the time stamps on the pics in here you can see. 27 minutes from the car being outside, clips all over the headliner,

to being inside clips off, and window installed 

just be really careful when you put the glass back in. Do not Press on the glass. let the rop do the work for you. if you press on the glass it will bind up and wreck the gasket.

if you look along the top of my window gasket on the inside, you can see where the it got torn during an install. that was the first time I installed the window in the car. 

I didnt make THAT mistake a second time. 

got a new addition to the rocco going in in the next couple days.

who wants to guess what it is?  

I will give you a hint, a critical part of it is green, and has 17 teeth.
