If I remember right you put the top in first, Due to it has to drop into the window slot a little bit.

I'm sure this is how you removed it. (Unhooked the bottom then the sides and then slid it up and off). Just do the reverse order.

Good Luck

If you have that little triangle plastic piece on already remove it. That goes on after you get the panel in. May that's the problem?

You work the top on first, Try going from the mirror back. Or pull the bottam out away from the door so that lip slides over the lip on the door. You can try for 20 minutes and 3 seconds into the 22nd minute it will pop right on. If you opened this thread 2 days ago i would have taken video replacing my window regulator.

OK. Try following what "bringmyownend" posted. You just got to find that "G Spot"

A dumb question now.... You do have your window rolled all the way down right?
