Great pictures, but the job is complicated enough to require text in order to be an informative world class article. And that takes a lot of time, possible more than Fulanito has.

Fulanito, with all these pictures, obviously you wanted to make this a DIY instruction. Want some help?

Definitely appreciate all the help I can get!!! It's a bit difficult for me to spend the time it'll take to put text to each picture!!! In the meantime I figured it may help some of the members to see a few install pics!!! Thanks for the offer by the way!!!!

To answer your question:
Yes you have to remove the sideview mirrors, and No there's no glue in the rubber window trim that you have to worry about!!!!
As far as the rearmost window, start by lifting the back of the bottom trim piece, and work your way to the front. This piece is only held in place by 3 metal clips like this one http://www.xoutpost.com/attachments/x...g?d=1149818189 !!! The upper part of the trim need to be removed by starting at the bottom rear and work your way up to the front!!! I hope this helps you some, unfortunately I didn't get pictures of that part of the install, since it was pretty easy. It may help if you already have the new parts in your possession to look at each part before removing the old one, as it will give you a better idea as to what's holding what, where the clips are located, and if you have to be careful no to break anything!!! Good luck!!!

I got the panel removal kit from Bavarian Auto Sport here: http://www.bavauto.com/shop.asp
Under the deepartments menu go to tools, manuals, and fluids, then choose tools, and then just scroll down to find the Puller Kit!!!!!!!!
