go to your nearest salvage and see if they have it there then save the rubber strip that surrounds the window cause you'll need it....then get some twine and some dish soap.....once you have it all (glass/rubber/twine) then place the rubber around glass carefully, place the twine in side the grove, placr the glass w/rubber on the bottom of the window edge..(sorry you'll need two people) and from the inside pull the twine so that it pulls the rubber lip up and over the window edge and creates a seat...the dish soap is to make it easier to get the rubber to seat and create a seal....wash off all around and that should do it for you.......hope this helps.........

oh wait what year do you have?

Bill nailed it='98. He saw the window go POP
(hey Bill nice FLEX in your avitar!)

->jc1kz -
what about the REALLY sticky rubber that holds the window in? Mine has a ring of this stuff around the window - looks like it kind holds the glass in (>?)

thanks!

Yes, I did have mine break. Hot day, gardener must have kicked up rock the day before and put a ding in it. Got hot out and WHAMO not more window. Worth the extra few bucks a year for fuill glass on insurance coverage. Went straight to the dealer and the bill was closer to $500.

I believe the passenger side has the additional antenna in it. Makes the glass more expensive that the driver side.
