Replacing 740 shattered side window

Post by gbm97 »

I allowed my girlfriend to use the weedeater with the bush cutting blade.

Our v40 had the back side window shattered.
Cost was $168.00 used with $150.00 install price.

My 740 had the small side furthest back window shattered.
The install price for the 740 is $110.00 while the used cost was $70.00

I want to install the 740,s little side window myself.
How is this done?
Is it an easy install or should I just pay the $110.00 install price to avoid a possible nightmare.
Thanks. Its the smallest one furthest to the back.

You really have to tear apart the whole door... The little window is a b-tch compared to the big glass... good luck...

Very shortly after I began the job I quit.
Window shop charged $110.00 to install it plus they threw in a free rock chip repair to the windshield.
Thanks lentmain.
