So…I have a 2001 VW Cabrio. The rear window was broken when we bought it and I thought it would be easy peasy to fix. Grabbed the window from our local junk yard. Ordered the Haynes repair manual. All good right? Wrong. I can’t find out how to replace this window! Not in the manual. Not online. Not on YouTube. No where. Apparently no layman has ever done so or wrote about it. Its like some manufacturers secret or something. Now that I have the old window glass out, how do I get the new one in? Thanks!
You removed glass. Reverse your steps.

Take the car and the window to a body shop. They do that stuff all the time.

Rear windows are usually glued to the top. A body shop would sublet this to a trim shop that replaces convertible tops.
