Default 1998 XJ8 Vanden Plas Driver Window Replacement?

Hi,

Bought new glass after a break in. Been trying for 3 or 4 days to install this window, and obviously i'm missing something.

Does the track need to be unbolted and moved? Does the doorlock need to come out? I drilled out the rivets and the rollers and that made it way easier to line up the rollers into the scissor arms.

But, after all, I CANNOT SEEM TO SQUEEZE the window into the track. And obviously it won't bend!

Thanks.

Any ideas appreciated.

Think you may have better luck in getting an answer if you repost this on the proper X308 forum
