My rear window dropped from the adhesive that was holding it in and has a nasty rattle. How do I remove it to replace the adhesive? It looks like the padding comes out from the top and the bottom just lifts out. Also, what do you recommend to replace the damaged adhesive?

Once all the trim is removed, the window will come out with a "little coaking" if it is already loose. Clean the window and the window frame. . Lacquer thinner, MEK, acetone,etc,etc, will cut the old adhesive. Be careful not to drip! Primer or paint all bare spots. Purchase a tube of black Urethane sealant from your local glass shop that will fit in a standard caulking gun. Run a half inch bead around the outside and reinstall glass. It will dry in half an hour. Urethane sealant is what we use in high rise commercial buildings. It will stand up to Hurricane force wind speeds. We also use it on windshields. Cost about 12 bucks for a tube.

Happy Happy!
