Yesterday afternoon, in Albuquerque during stop-and-go traffic. Heard a loud "whack", looked at the passenger window, saw a bullet stuck in the center of the glass, which then shattered into hundreds of pieces. Nothing unusual for Albuquerque, although the guy driving next to me freaked out when I yelled back that someone was shooting at us.
Today, I wasted four hours in a junkyard getting a decent used window out of a junker. Not allowed to use powered cutting tools there, and I absolutely destroyed that door and components getting the glass out. Tomorrow I absolutely HAVE to put the glass in. My daily commute is at 5am, 25 degrees and 75mph, with an inop heater fan. Don't want to do it, nor leave the vehicle parked out of sight, with a missing window.
There are no spare parts readily available, so I cannot afford to break anything on the install, and I really don't want to spend 8 hrs doing this. I've been all through youtube trying to glean a few tips and tricks, but there is almost nothing useful for a 1993 Ford E350 van. The truck videos are too different to be useful.
So, if anyone has any helpful hints or suggestions, let em fly.
Thanks
