no, not special tools need.

first take off the door panel, u can pry that off at the edges, it is connected with clips, they just pop out.

after that, u gotta take the rubber insulation around the window off

after that, disconnect the motor arm from the window, there actually are two, and those get disconnected by taking some pliers and pulling on those to little clips there. after that, u can just take the window out and put the new one in. you will figure it out

Hi. I just subscribed here because this is the only reference to any DIY about taking the widow glass, and this is exactly the point I'm not so sure about. My E46 320d 1999 (Europe) seems to have all plastics and rubber glued to the metal, Does anybody have pictures and or more details about how to take them out?
