separating RR window from regulator...

470 Views 8 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  Merc-S600
hello

for the 1999 s420, we have the regulator rivets removed, and the unit is ready to be removed, save for some difficulty of getting the glass off the regulator track...


is there a clip that needs to be undone...? the glass is approx. six inches open...and, it will not go up or down at this point...unable to 'lift' the glass up and off the track...


thank you...

Is there any way you can force it all the way down? esp if youre replacing the regulator. When i replaced both my rear ones you needed to push the window allll the way down, then pull off a little plastic clip retainer that stops the window from sliding off the rail (one of my windows didnt have this clip. Then once at the very bottom, you can angle the window out of the rail - i dont know if you can remove the window off the regulator unless the window is at the bottom.

Hope this helps!

Sorry to add to the above (can't figure out how to edit comment..) you don't slide the window 'up and out', but you need to slide it horizontally off the regulator rail. If you can see where the window sits on the regular you'll see what I mean.
