Default 86 F-150 rear glass install

So as I was loading wood in to truck a piece bounced off bed and smashed the glass in the rear sliding window.

How easy is this to install and has anyone done this etc.

Thanks
Dave

I did it I thought it was a huge hassle. However it was 350 for a glass instiller to do it

Not that hard. Use some windex for lube. Wrap a thin nylon rope around the rubber gasket in the channel. Have about a foot on each end hanging out on the bottom middle. Feed the ends through the window opening from inside to out. Set the base of the gasket set into place. Have someone hold the window from falling, and you pull each end of rope, 1 at a time. This pulls the outside lip out and around the window frame. Keep pulling with steady pressure til both ends meet and its in.

I have searched around and believe it or not LMC is one of the cheapest for replacing my slider window with a solid window.

Anyone use theirs?

Thanks
