Broken rear window

hi there, new to the site. Just purchased a 2019 crew max 4x4 5.7. Oldest son just put a bungie strap through the rear window. It’s the full slide down window, not sure if there is another type... but looking to see how much this is going to cost. Safe Life can’t fix it and the dealers are closed. I’ll call in the morning, but trying to prepare myself for what it’s going to cost. Thanks.

 

Guessing half a grand?

 

Looks like it is $370 for the OEM glass plus labor. Ima guess bumpin $600.

 

A member here just replaced his and did it himself....hopefully he will see this thread and chime in. If I recall he ordered the glass from Toyota and said it wasn’t hard at all to replace...

 

Need to DIY and video it. This one could be better but you get the gist of it.

yep..rear is DIY. order oem Toyota then get to work...or your son

 

I just did this. I ordered the glass from "Pro Auto Glass" on ebay. It was $160. Very easy straight forward install.

Roll rear window down about 3/4, remove back seat, take access panel off (about 14 10mm bolts), window is held in with 4 10mm bolts. Disconnect rear defrost mechanism, clean out old glass.

Insert new glass in at an angle (30-45 degrees) gently lower into place. Have helper (oldest son would be good) put the four bolts to attach to track...reassemble.

Total time for me was under an hour.

Thanks for all the great replies! I’ll look into ordering the glass tomorrow for a DIY. We will see how it goes.

 

Don't forget to locate your 10mm wrenches/sockets before you're holding a big piece of glass... Good luck! Let us know how it goes.

 

The most important part!

 

Well got glass from a local place, $250 and installed ourself. Not hard at all, getting all the glass picked up with the shop-vac took the most time. Thanks to everyone for the advice. Oh, dealer quoted me at $359 for the install and $540 for the window....

 

Hi again all, wondering if someone knows where to find the torque values for the rear seat bolts, labeled with an “11” I think. And also the 4 bolts for bolting the window to the rails. I don’t really want to go back in there, but yesterday when rolling up the window it sounded like it was grinding on something, maybe just loose glass. Can’t recreate it, but figured if it happens again I’ll go back in and make sure one didn’t come loose. Also want to check the seat bolts for safety... I guess. Safety 3rd.

 

I love it! Snug em dont gorilla em! Some blue Loctite too. DIY is awesome and you learn something new! Dealers are smoking crack these days, mine wanted a grand for brakes, Under $200 and did them myself, smooth as glass. Get it! HAHAHA just remember glass doent like to flex, it goes BOOM sooner than you might think it will.
