Replace side window glass - ELX
« on: June 30, 2016, 05:38:06 PM »
Hi folks,

Can anyone give me some guidance on swapping the side window on my Fiat 126 ELX (the current glass has a score right down it where it has been rubbing on something)

I would guess at;
1) remove winder handle & door card
2) remove winder mechanism
??3) remove trim at base of window
4) rotate and remove glass up through bottom of window frame?

Photo of window;

If it ain't broken, fix it anyway (just because).

Managed to get the information from Lucas (LP garage);

This model its easy just remove door panel and undo all the 10mm spanner bolts, the glass will go easy.

Hope this helps someone else.

Anyone know if this glass can be used to replace the the other type with the main and 1/4 glass. Can it be retro fitted and what changes would be needed
