Default Any DIY installing rear passenger window?

Well, my rear passenger window got bashed over New Years. I just bought a new window from Lexus. I took off the door panel and the weather strips. Does anyone know how to slip the window into place or is there any DIY? Any help would work, thanks

I'm sure you'll have to unbolt the old window from the rail and clean up any of the glass still in there so the new glass doesn't get scratched up. Put the regulator down about half way or a little more so the window can slide in. Slide the window in at an angle (might be bottom front first) from outer part of the door, and with some wiggling it should slide in and down onto the holder frame.

I've never installed the Lexus door glass but have with other cars and they were almost all similar in some fashion. Let us know how it turns out.
