All: I know how to get the door panel off, but how do I get the glass out? My Father-in-law (Fredster) has a 996 & the windows are tinted. Too tinted. We bought some replacements but need advice on how to get the old glass piece out. I searched here, Pelican & YouTube, to no avail. Can you help? Thanks, Paul.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Its explained in detail with pics. Bentley manual section 64-5. Window Repairs, window glass, removing and installing. Not sure if its OK to post the page here?
The window glass has two clamps on the window regulator that hold the glass. Loosen the bolts, and it lifts right out...

My vehicle was heavily tinted at purchase; I purchased an OTC window film remover kit from Advance Auto, and had both door window films and quarter window films off inside a few hours; instructions here .

Correct. There's not a lot that holds the glass in there and it's pretty easy once you have the door panel off.
Thanks guys! Anyone want to buy a set of door windows with a dark tint?
house hold ammonia sprayed on the tint will soften glue and allow you to pull it right off.
