I have a 1997 Vectra, WCM34WQ. My nephew was cutting the glass and yes a rock broke the window in the entrance door. I want to replace the glass but can't figure out how to do it. I pulled the inner frame out but the outter side did not come out. Does anyone know what I have to do?

Bill.....If it is like most, you remove the inner plastic panel and the outer is usually stuck on with putty. If you can leave it in place and get to the glass, I wouldn't remove the outer unless it's time for new caulking. You might think about replacing the glass with plexiglass.

Good Luck

I removed the frame on the inside of the door, but apparently I have to remove the inner part of the window. I am not sure how to do it. Two things that look like screws come up into the inner part from below it. Any suggestions?

The frame is revited together at the seam. If you are trying to replace just the glass you will need to open the frame up.

RV how do you get the inner frame out of the door to get to where the glass goes? Any idea?
