RE: Parting out Mopars?



I safely removed my Front and rear glass myself, but didn't kick or cut.  I was just really careful...only to have the back glass explode about an hour later.  It seemed to have been under tension and once removed tried to straighten itself is my guess...Should've seen all those little pieces of glass bouncing throughout the garage...
