Replacing door glass

Need help replacing the rear door glass on a 1994 Saturn SL2 sedan. I've had the outside door panel off but can't get the new glass to slide in (too wide)

So the glass your trying to put in is for a that rear door?If so the trick is that thin piece of sheet metal that the outer belt molding snap's onto where the rear part of it towards the rear of the car needs to be bent out a little to allow the window glass to drop in.Let me know how it goes.

Great tip! The glass is in (only took me about 30 minutes) and the car is dry. And now my son doesn't have to shovel out the back seat every time it snows. Thanks again.
