Drivers Window Trouble

[MaineWater]

On my moms 1990 Coupe Deville the drivers side window came off track, not just where the pastic piece slides onto that metal track and the ball goes into the socket, but on the sides or something. If i roll the window down it will slant horizontally . The front end by the mirror will go down and the back will go up. I will see a small hole in the glass near the back. I have no idea where it would go back into place. ANy suggestions?

If you can see the hole where the window used to be cover then you need window guides. They are cheap but its cotly to get them put on at the shop when my window did the same thing it ran me 130.00 and 12.00 for two guides . I got the guides from the dealer. Rockauto.com sells them you just snap them on the window and push it back in place . Its two guides per window one on the top right and lower right if you are looking from outside the car. The lower right was was a pain to put in I watched them as they put them in my car but its not to hard .

I replaced both of mine in my Coupe DeVille on the drivers front window. Honestly, pulling the door panel is the most time-consuming part of the job. It is not a hard job to do yourself, just take your time finding all of the screws that hold the panel on before you go trying to yank the panel off. The window guides are a bit of a PITA to get on, use a set of blunt pliars to snap them in. Once you get the guides in, it seems to be easier to first line up both the front and rear guides in the tracks and then rotate the glass counter-clockwise to snap the guides into the tracks. If you do it right, you will definately hear a audible "snap" when they go in. Good luck with the repair.
