How to: Replace rear quarter glass (Mondeo Mk3)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- Some losers broke into my car! So I'm replacing my rear quarter window, which is a fixed glass pane at the back of the rear door.
To do this job properly on the Mondeo hatchback featured, you need to lower the main window glass so as to be able to move the quarter glass stile forward. So this video covers that as well as removing the door card for access.
Quarter glass can be pricey, even from wreckers. Try Amazon searches ~

You remain remarkably calm Craig, bless you.
You are very detail and very articulate. You must do more vids on everything. Well done.
Lemonade from lemons.Ha! Smashing expression.
😁
Craig's, Thanks, Thanks you very much. Most of things that i am able to do today i learn it from you. I am going to change all my glasses., I was afraid of passager rear glasses.
I can relate. I had to replace the same glass first as someone broke it luckily not into pieces, it all cracked but still was in place. But then it got worse. Last summer some buggers smashed my rear window while I was visiting France 3500 km away from home and stole some of the valuable belongings from the hatchback. Had to pay 400 euros for having it replaced.
Too bad. These ones don't appear to have realized they could access the boot by folding the rear seats down, they tried to open the hatch but despite being at the car for 10 mins the stuff in my boot was safe. At least they don't make them too smart.
Sorry to hear your misfortune. There really are some scumbags around :(
Good clear informative video as always. Thanks for thinking of others.
All the best to you 👍
Same thing happens to me and here I am. Trying to see if I can replace it myself.
Someone did the same to my car too, getting it replaced today.
Someone did that to me aswell...
I never leave anything valuable inside my car, and yet i got my window broken...
fourtunateley, this person didnt' manage to get in, and just left me with a cracked window, so at least the rain doesen't come in...
Next thing i'm buying is an anti thief film... and a window of course...
@@simpleinverso8628 the quarter window is small and doesn't make much sound when broken. I did some research and i think thieves break it to gain access to the trunk or something. But yeah, the thieves pulled up to a parking lot, slowly cruising and when they passed my car they stopped couple feet past my car, and decided to reverse park next to mine. And then the person sitting in shotgun got out and tried to get in to my car. After failing their attempt they drove off 1 min after. Just to come out of the store to see a broken window and my passenger seat pulled down. I also looked into antitheft film and it looked solid.
@@briantan1285 I hope you're allright! Did they manage to steal something?
nice broo, thieves just broke my dad's rear door quarter
Cheers Craig, very useful video. Thanks
Nice car.Greetings from U.S.
It happens over here also.
I am sure you're nothing like the chaps that broke your window.
Anyway good video.Hope that never happens again to you.
Thanks !
That sealant is like roofing sealant that never dries. Brand name here in the US is Henry’s
Great Video! Very informative!👍💪
I have to replace both main and quarter glass on my estate version. I bought two new doors 1 front and 1 rear, but sadly the rear glass wasn't tinted on the replacement. so I will have to swap it over :) I can't live without tinted windows - mainly for security and comfort
Door foam sealant is made from butyl
All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. But God loved us so much that He sent His only Son , Jesus to take our punishment on the cross. Repent and believe the gospel and God will grant you the gift of everlasting life.
Thanks mate this vid was very helpful
Thank you so much bro
Thank you
I did that other day as I was replacing chrome trim from other car, the trim was not matching to the quarter glass on my car so I replaced with the other car quarters windows.
no nonsense and informative. thanks craig
Thnx
Tools needed?
Good informative video
Hi Craig! Great video as always. I'm sorry that someone broke your Mondy window. I heard that this quarter window rubber/sealant is one of the wind noise sources. So, watching this video I was wondering if you can make a video which will cover all sources of wind noise on Mondeo mk3 and how to fix it. Currently on my (2002) wind noise is starting to shows above 90kmh/56mph and I think it comes from everywhere.
The “ police “ didn’t give up …. They never tried find the perpetrators.
Must be south Auckland 😝 lol
My have sensor glass nmyhave that and now lock transmision and other thing because glass broken
Good Video but actually the vent glass and quarter glass on vehicles is sold less frequently and in demand less so that's why it's more expensive automotive glass is purely supply in demand if the demand is high the supply usually will be high if the demand is low the price goes up because they don't sell that many of that part so less aftermarket manufacturers focus on making that part type. That's why common vehicles are cheaper to replace windows for because there is more demand and more supply for the part for example windshields for Camrys, corollas, Silverados are much cheaper than a BMW X5 or Chevy Corvette. This is just based on my personal experience fixing, buying and selling glass for close to 2 decades.
WHAT KIND OF CAR IS THIS CAR OR WHAT YEAR IS THIS
I think he's British Mate!!!
Do you have sensor glass
Ya the police said doing thier job makes them feel uncomfortable....
Hey i was wondering do you need to put some glue on the rubbers ? im about to replace my own window and some of my friends said you need to glue it but in this video i saw that you only screw those screws (i have the same car) and thats it ? will it hold good enuf ?
Sure, so long as the rubber is in good condition. The screws and fitment compress the rubber seals. Only if they or the frame is bent/damaged would you want to use sealant.
someone else hard earned property and they do what they do one thing that boils my blood goodluck craig
Only had our new Subaru 5 months and today I’m changing out a quarter panel. They last time it was a passenger back door window.
No glue for that huh. Hmmmm😊
This is for any person that wants to put a car thieve through pain . Only for people with a quarter glass on rear doors . When a thieve breaks the quarter glass their motive is to put arm through and flick the button to open door with finger . Take a Stanley knifes blade and break 3 pieces off . Stick it to the inside back of the black long divider with blue tac . When they place there arm through it , it will cut their whole arm . Also take some smaller blades and blue tac it to the button perfectly so when they flick button their finger will be badly cut . And the last thing have a kill switch installed and hide switch very well . The pain from the low life will be for nothing lol. Ha ha ha
I have been trying to pull the clip for the last hour now.. I can't feel my fingers anymore. "Strong thumb"..do you a bionic thumb or something? Jesus Christ!
We all know what color they were
Realistically this will take 3 hours.....your first time...
i think its actually a rear vent glass
There's no vent.
@@CraigsDIY oh, I know, but I searched rear vent glass and got that kind of window.
You take too long to explain everything making this video very painful more than helpful 🙄
