Replacing driver's side door glass 700

T-bone pretty much laid it out for you. Make sure you go the extra mile and get all of the glass out. You need a decent vacuum and the crack and crevice tool works pretty good there. Do not be afraid to pull the felt covered rubber mouldings out of the guide channels to get them cleaned of glass as well. Obviously your window was in the up position when someone thoughtfully blew it out so most of the glass is going to be on the front seat and elsewhere. When doing door glass I find it is easier to remove one or both of the rubber glass guide pieces that run inside of each guide channel, front and rear. It gives you a lot more room to angle the glass in and once your glass is in place just put some lube (vaseline if nothing else) on the back of it and slide it right down between the channel and the glass. While you are at the bone yard "borrow" any little bits you might need like the lock knob, extra regulator clips, red washers, and door panel retainers.
