ok, so i'm repainting my car and in order to do it the right way you need to cut out the rear quarter glass. a lot easier said than done. i got one out, kinda, it shattered when i thought i had all the glue cut out and tried to press it out, lol. does anyone have a clue how much those are to replace, i'm assuming they're hella expensive. i didn't touch the other one, i'm gonna call the glass people and see if they can get it out for me this week.

best to just find a wrecked celica and take it from it. That's what we did when taking them out. One glass was shattered and we got another from a wreck.

ok, we can get a new toyota glass for 214 which really isn't bad seeing as it does have a metal rubber coated trim, but we found one from lkq for 50 bucks that is used. i'll get it tomorrow afternoon and check it out, if it's in good condition i'm just going to use that.

I watched a glass guy do mine and it just popped right out with no cutting at all.
