95 Accent/Excel window trouble
 
My driverside window came out of the cheap little Korean plastic housing and no matter what compound I use the window will not hold in the damn thing. I want to roll down my window without pushing down on it as I roll it down. Does anyone know of an epoxy that will hold. I have tried:
Caulking
JB Weld
Super Glue(I am desperate)
Chimney Sealant

I need suggestions, I am getting pissed off.

Have you thought about perhaps drilling a hole in the housing and putting a small bolt in it? I'm not sure what it looks like but it might be an idea...

It is a wierd little setup. There are two plastic pieces that the window sits into. To describe how I will say that the plastic piece looks like a taco shell and the window would be the meat. There was originally an epoxy of some kind that glued the two together that quit on me. If I put a screw in there i would have to drill a hole through the window.

Have you ever tried drilling in safety glass (which all car windows are made of)

I use jb weld on mine and it holds very well you just have to clean it well (with alcohol) and sand the glass a bit (scratch it up) and mix the jb weld weld of course
