how to replace driver side window - 95 integra
call the glass doctor...
Seriously, I got my driver side window broken when someone tried to break into my car. I had someone replace it, but I watched them do it and it is pretty tedious. It is probably worth it just to pay a few extra bucks for install, then to mess it up trying to do it yourself.

It's actually fairly easy... when I had my door replaced from when it was wrecked, the body shop put in new glass, but it was cheap aftermarket, and it looked it. They gave me the spare parts from the 2 doors for free, including the glass from the door that they put on there, so I swapped them out.
Since your door is already without glass, just remove the door panel and remove the brackets and bolts from the window regulator (the brackets that are glued to the actual glass). Then pull the strip off the exterior window track that covers the screws, remove the 3 screws, and remove the window track.
On the new glass, install the little piece near the top corner that rides in that exterior track, carefully slide down into the door, and make sure it gets into the front and rear tracks inside the door. Then install the exterior track once again, and make sure the little piece on the glass gets into the track, and put that all back together. I think I used some spray adhesive to hold that strip on that covers the track screws.
Sorry I can't be more detailed, but the Helm's manual is of great help.
