Hey guys,

My girlfriend was driving her 98 V70 NA next to a dumptruck, and the truck kicked a rock into her window. The passenger front window completely shattered, and was only held together by the tint. Luckily, she was able to pull the whole window up and out, so there is only a tiny bit of glass to clear out.

Anyway, I went by the junkyard to pick up a new window. Got one, but destroyed the window track getting it out. I have no idea how to get it into her car without killing the window seals, track, etc. Anyone have a walkthrough? Anyone done this before?

I will try to attach what "Lookforjoe" sent me.

He is a wealth of knowledge.

Is it any different for an 850?

So, this sucked. I got the window in and snapped back in the rails, but I can't get the retaining clips back in. Oh well. I'm going to wait and try and get those clips in tmw.

I don't think so, because when I was at the junkyard, they said I could use an 850 glass. If they say you can use the 850 glass, then it has to have the same ball and retaining clip that the X70's have.
