    I have to replace the glass in the left rear door.

    I know how to remove the bacon, but what next? The glass has a hole at the bottom and there are some two plastic elements in it. How do I remove them and should I put these pins in the glass before installing the new glass in the door or after placing the glass in the door?

    Only after installing the glass you must secure the glass with pegs in the guide against sliding out when tilting the glass.

    And how do you remove these pins from the glass when it is still in the door?

    The smaller one which is inside the bigger one should be able to stand out. Once you get the smaller one, the bigger one should come out without a problem. It works on the principle of a wall plug.

    And what to knock out? So after breaking it will fall somewhere?

    Sorry buddy, correction. You have to take it out somehow to yourself. In this metal sheet, which is from the inside of the door, there are such rubber plugs, after moving the glass to a certain height in one of these holes should be (not easy) access to these pins. I made a mistake writing the previous post.

    OK, but the assembly is unchanged, i.e. mounting the wheels when placed in the door?

    Yes, you have to slide the glass in its place and then install the dowels through the same hole.
