How hard is it to remove center sliding glass >>
I've got a really cool and expensive "Arctic Cat" sticker on the middle sliding window that I want to move the new L when I trade my 00. I know some here have removed their glass to put a one-piece setup in. How is to remove the center piece only? I hope the dealer doesn't freak when I request to do this.

If you have to pull the entire window:
Pull the cargo light.
You'll have to remove the outer window shell by way of pulling down the headliner. There are multiple nuts that hold the frame in. The windows and outer shell come out together.
You'll have to pull the trim pieces that run along top behind the seats to get to the bottom nuts.
Pops right out after that. Get some extra black glue to reseal if you need to.
A couple hour job if you take your time.
If you don't want to pull the entire window: I think that there are spacers that run along the bottom of the sliding glass. If you pull them out, the center glass should lift and pop out. Or, you could do it the hard way. Your choice....
What, am I the only one that's pulled my truck completely apart?
