    I did the same thing last year adjusting the driver door glass. Problem was finding a new tint chrysler glass. bummer....
    I did find one for $75.00, but not as clean as my original. But it will do for now...

    That definately sucks. Definately take a break for a while. I hate it when things go bad on a restoration.

    I'm sorry to hear that.  I agree with the others (and you): take a break.

    HemiDog you have the right idea. Leave things for as long as it takes to clear your thoughts...

    Ugh! I did the same exact thing while installing my power windows last year. Nothing more shocking because the glass is there one second and then is all over the place in one loud pop  :pullinghair:
    I too had to find a tinted window and had to settle for less than spectacular. Hope you score a quality window for cheap.

    Thanks guys.  I just need a break.  It is hard not to get excited and start rushing things.  A little of that probably encouraged the glass to pop, break, and shatter.  Just glad I didn't throw something and make the situation worse. :crying:

    I agree with everyone about taking a break but don't get discouraged as it could of been worse and I have been there spinning a rod bearing last year in my 70 Cuda with only 721 miles on a complete rebuild. Try not to get in a big of a hurry doing the glass work as these kind of things happen all to often.
