Default rear quarter window removal/install???

the cars a 95 civic ex coupe. ok so yesterday some piece of **** spark plugged my rear passenger side quarter window or something so its shattered but still in place . i ordered a used window off ebay. is there any molding or anything i need to order from honda? or will i just need some kind of window adhesive? also how exactly should i go about removing the shattered window or should i just actually break it out? any advice would be appreciated. im kind of broke from buying christmas presents and such so i really dont have money to pay someone to install it. thanks in advance.

Just take the old one out however you like, easiest way is to use a windshield removal tool available most anywhere for under $15. You'll need some Butal for reinstall.

Tape/plastic and save the money for a profesional install.. If it were me.. I would do anything else on my car myself but some things are best left to someone who knows what they're doing.

couldnt have said any better myself. you dont want to be on the freeway and your quarter window flys out and hit another car, cuz glue wouldnt hold up, and it would be your fault, cuz you did it, but if a pro did it you can sue him..lols jk Good Luck!

You'll probably have to shop around.. I've never had it done before so i have no idea.. Probably not that bad if you have the glass.. would be my guess
