I never did a rear window yet, but the front one I did more then once.........the only thing I can think of that would help would be to make sure that the regulator is in the "window down" position.......this gives you enough room to get the window in at the angle needed cause its not in the way........

you also kinda have to start it on an angle.....for instance start the front or back corner in first and then drop the other side in after if that makes any sense.....

I'd take the regulator out to do it.
I know it was a pain getting it out of my grey max when we stripped it.

If you follow the instructions to replacing the regulator, the windows are easy.

I took out the windows for both the front and back when replacing the regulators so I didn't accidently break them.

Ended up taking out the little black pilar piece between the big and small windows and she slid right in and bolted up no problem.
