1. Lower the rearwindow
2. Remove the window winder.
3. Loosen the arm rest and remove the inner panel.
4. Cut the inner seal to get access to the top part of the door, near to the rear quarter glass.
5. Prise out part of the one piece window guide from the window guide rail.
5. Remove the two 10 mm bolts to loosen the window guide rail.
6. Pull the window gude rail down and move it away from the rear quarter glass position.
7. If necessary install the rear quater glass in the seal.
8. Push the rear bottom corner of the glass into the door frame until only the top part is not installed.
9. Lubricate the top of the seal and gradully push it into position.
