I have a floppy glass and wondered if I could get behind it to do something about it. Just one more of the dozens of little jobs the car needed doing to it.

The glass on mine (08)was broken so I didn't have to worry about breaking good glass.
I can confirm the the mounting plate will pop off the ball joints that do the adjusting.
Can you take off the plastic outer cover??
If so you should then be able to push the back of the glass mounting with something like a blunt screwdriver from the front??
The glass itself is only around a fiver on ebay if it's any help??
