What loose parts will I need to remove and replace my door window (bolts, fasteners etc.)?

Thanks

Door trim: pull handle, door trim panel, inner moisture shield.
Inner and outer dews.
You will need to drill out about five rivets that hold the window regular (and motor if you have power windows). I replaced mine with 1/4" bolts and locking nuts.
There are a two large nylon limiting stubs at either end of the window. These will also need to be drilled out.
There may be more, but that's all I can remember off hand.

How long were the bolts you used? And how many?


Thanks for the reply.

Pro tip: I had to replace my passenger side window a few years ago. When I put the guide rollers back on, I used toilet flange bolts. No joke! They fit perfectly in the rollers, and you can hacksaw off the extra length.

Thanks for the reply.



Again, this is from memory. As I recall there are five bolts that hold the window regulator to the door frame (power window car). I used 1/4"x1/2" bolts for those five/door and 1/4"x3/4" (might been 1" instead of 3/4") for the two/door window stops. That would be 10 1/4"x1/2" bolts and 4 1/4"x3/4" bolts for two doors.

I have one new window w/o rollers and one used window with rollers. Do you remember what you used for the rollers? And what did you use for the guides? I bought a set of Fiero Store guides.
Thanks so much for the help. Things go so much smoother when you have the right stuff for the job before you start. Plus I'm 50 miles from the nearest place to source this stuff.
