Default Changing passanger window

Heya guys,

I had my passanger window smashed in an attempted theft, and I got a 2nd hand one from a wreckers... I have two questions:

1. Should I get it tinted to match before I put it in?
2. Can I put it in myself or get the pro's to do it?

Cheers

putting in the window is a PITA imo....

just have a pro do it unless you have time to look at it and figure it out

it would have probably helped if i also had a helms for the car window we replaced.

if you do it by yourself, it can get difficult. the hardest part is making it sit on the tracking bar. and make sure your hands are not sweaty.

about the tint.. id put the window in, then get tint on it, cuz you never know if it could slip a little bit and rip that tint.

If your trying to savemoney on the job try to take everything off the door and then take it to a pro. that way he/she does not have to charge you for installing and removing the door stuff.
