it comes completely out .. once its lifted you squeeze the hinges together and it should come loose then you lift the glass and pull towards the back of the car .. there are two tabs fitted into slots and itll just slide out ..

Have you tried tightening the 2 Phillips headed bolts on the inside beside the handle that go through the glass to the flat retainer on the outside of the glass yet?

no but i did find that the tube are not draining and some idiot siliconed the 2 back holes up and i pulled one of the front hoses off from the inside and it poured water all over me so i think i am gonna use an air compressor to blow in the tubes the might be stopped up by dirt dobbers.

The front drain holes exit the car behind the front wheel where the back of the splash pan has a square place on it. The rear drain holes exit through a hole at the front of the rear tire in the GT ground effects.

With the bolts being tight they might be rusted in the retainer (the flat piece on the outside of the glass) in the shelves of the retainer, so thast you're not able to tighten them. Or you might be able to add another vinyl washer to take up some of the slack if you can back the bolts out.
