Step 1: Inspect the vehicle
A certified technician inspects the damaged side window and verifies the correct replacement glass before preparing the vehicle for replacement.

The technician removes the broken side window glass, cleans accessible fragments from the door cavity and vehicle interior, and prepares the door for the new glass.
