That's just crap. Hope you can get it sorted.

If the window is bonded like the 5th gen then they can be an arse to get out in one piece but it might not be to bad as it is bust already. You need to make a hole through the sealant and then saw through the sealant with a bit of wire poked through inside to outside through the hole you made. Tape the paintwork around the window first. There may be a couple of plastic clips you need to break to get it out as well. If there is they are buried in the sealant. Knock through them with a 1" paint scraper and hammer from the inside. Once you have made a start you may be able to pull the seal off as the glass has gone.

If you can get a window they are easy to bond in. Autofactors or Ebay for window bond. I leant a ladder against mine to hold it while the glue was drying!!

Good luck

This sucks! I hope the cnuts that did this get what they deserve!

Is there a trick where you put string in the seal, then put the quarter glass in so the seal is over the outside, then you pull the string out from the inside and the glass will be in?

I am very sorry to hear this. A lot of us have had break ins or attempted break ins so I feel for you.

BTW has anyone ever managed to steal a lude without keys?
I have kleptomania,
But when it gets bad,
I take something for it.
