Default HELP! HOW TO REPLACE WINDOW EASILY?!

So some ******* broke into my car shattered my window and stole some ****.
And now I have the new window, but I almost had it on but not quite.
So has anyone replaced a window and got any tips on how to do it easy?
Its for a 95 integra, passenger side door. Any tips or suggestions would be highly highly appreciated.

Window replacement is str8 forward. Behind the handle on the inside there is a screw remove it. The door bin has a screw in it. toward the front of the door there is a lil plastic piece that also holds the door panel on. I can't remember if there is one under the speaker cover but just pop it off and look. I don't think there is. Then with a panel popper or a flat head go on the bottom of the door and wedge it in and force the panel off. Once you have the panel lose remove the triangle that's covering the back of the side veiw mirror. Don't rip off the plastic that is covering the inside of the door. Unless you have a heat gun or something to soften the goop so you can reapply it later. Instead get a razor and cut and x in the big opening at the back of the door so you can vacuum out all the glass. there are 2 other access holes you are going to need to get the 10mm screws so you can get the old stuff busted stuff out. Move the window up and down with the driver controls so they bolts line up with the access holes. put in your new window. Shake the door to make sure no more glass in in there. duct tape the plastic back together and replace all the stuff.

It's really not that hard.

pretty much what he said. But some tips, put the window halfway down, and it'll be easier to access the regulator. There are like 2 bolts (1 on each clip) on the window holding it to the regulator and just remove the old one and insert the new, pretty easy to do just mess around with it.
