Re: Rear window
Hi
Basically the same method to fit rear windscreen as the front, someone on the inside with a cord inserted into the groove in the seal and someone out side thumping and pushing as you pull the internal rubber lip over the steel seat still takes a few attempts and plenty of tyre soap though and can take a few hours if unlucky.

Re: Rear window
I did this a one man job. tail gate up, place the window over the hole and using a plastic tyre lever just worked my way around gently easing it into place. Make sure it doesn't slip through hole and take your time. Took me about twenty minutes.

Re: Rear window
Now thats 2 completely different answers....I wonder which one will be mine when I do the job 
Re: Rear window
This might be a stupid question, but once a rear window is removed, can the same one go back in?
The new van came with a double glazed window that used to be fitted, but was never put back when the previous owner got a new rear door. The double glazed window appears a bit warped, so am not 100% it would fit snug, am hoping it will straighten out once fitted
If not, would have to put the old one back.
Is the above worth a try, best left alone.

Re: Rear window
as Im i leeds too I would say the double glazed rear window will be shot so can I come over and take it of your hands
depending on how badf it is might be worth a go sticking it back in.
