really easy to do. remove the door panel, roll the window track down till the bolts are accesible, unbolt, and slide the new window in

is it a tight fit for the window or does it go in pretty easily?

it should go in easily. slide it in with the front part going in first in the seal, then the rear

repainting it. car was a disaster when i bought it, it was electron blue pearl. 1/4 panel had tons of bondo; so we replaced the RR 1/4 panel. i have new doors for it, new fenders, new hood, and a CF hood. just gotta do a little bit more work, and spray it
