    hey, i got new sidegl*** for my merc but the shop mixed the brackets.

    is there a possibility to get the brackets changed by my self without destroying the gl***, or will have to bring them back to the shop???

    thanks

    I just did my side windows because I eliminated the wind wings on the front doors and I worked 3 hrs trying to cut this Black silicone type adhesive the gl*** guys used and ended up breaking the windows to get the brackets so I could use them. I would at least call them and ask. Good Luck!

    if there held in by the setting tape, it s pretty easy to pop them out and put them back in. just get them wet with some gl*** cleaner and smack them off with a rubber mallet and reinstall the same way. if its silicone that **** can be a lot of fun...
