E36 Convertible, rear window replacement?

[silverback mike]

My rear window needs replacing. I've found a suitable replacement, it appears to zip in...

I've checked on the internet, there seems to be a knack in this operation....

Has anyone completed this, and if so, can you help.

Hi

I claimed off my car insurannce for the replacement screen and fiting.

The guys at the local BMW dealership said it was a real pain in the butt to fit, despite having a zip fitment. As I understand it you need to glue the screen in place whilst zipping it.

I hope this helps

Yep it zips in, horrible fiddly job though.
