Drivers Window Came Unglued...

As the title states, the driver side window came unglued from the track in my 98 Expy.

I believe I have read about people having a similar problem before but couldn't really find any info.

What do you all recommend as far as adhesive/glue to put the window right again?
And for those of you who have done it, how did you? Was it hard and did the repair last?

Sorry for all the questions.


Thanks!

I believe I bought mine at NAPA. The most important thing is to wait a minimum of 24 hours at 50 degrees minimum, before you use that window. I duct taped it so my wife and I would remember not to use it.

I used 3M panel bonding adhesive for mine. It is basically the same thing but its a little stronger. The same applies for drying and curing time. I got mine at my local auto parts store.
