I've got the repair kit here and thinking of tackling the job tomorrow. Is it pretty easy or an I likely to struggle and end up with no window?

Anyone an idea how long it should take?

A link to a walkthrough would be very helpful if there's one knocking about.

The car is a '99 focus estate.

Cheers

    Cheers. Haha yeah, very fiddly.

    I got it done today, it took a good couple of hours simply because it's a case of winding first cable on, wind second on, attempt to put plastic wheel in place, dodge flying bits as it unravels, start again.lol

    Anyway, all done, couple of cut knuckles and plenty of swearing and I don't need to get out of the car at car parks any more.

    Cheers.
