Effduration is on a distinguished road
welcome to X5 ownership. When you buy new window clips, buy several sets for both front and rear doors. You will likely need them. It is not a bad idea to have spare regulators for all doors in stock too...(I do)

I am now assembling a window-repair kit to store near my spare tire for broken windows on the road - which has now happened twice.

T-20 Torx driver
Medium Philips head
8mm nut driver
8mm open-end wrench - allows you to release window even if it won't move
Front and rear window clips
Blue Loctite for window screws- avoid contact with plastic
Masking tape to hold window up during repair - won't damage paint
Piece of wood or plastic pipe to prop
Small and large trim tools
Flashlight

optional:
Duct tape to temp seal a torn vapor barrier
extra door clips
