Howdy, i ve got a replacement window for my drivers window as it is scrathed to hell, ive also got replacements for the back door windows as i messed up the tints, how hard is it to swap over the windows?

Best tip I can give is to get some who knows what they are doing!!

It's a P.I.T.A to do and can be very fiddly

Easy on a Scoob though, just make sure the window is down before you try taking the card off :)
