Just bought my latest "old age crazy" toy. Used to be "middle age crazy" The RR small window that retracts with top came unglued from support bracket. Dealer sells glass glued to bracket but glass could easily be glued back to existing bracket. What type of adhesive, glue or epoxy should be used and how long would it need to be clamped together to set up.
Thanks for help
 
I would probably go to a glass shop (Safelite comes to mind) and have them glue it in place... they should have the correct adhesive and I don't think it would cost much more than if you were to purchase a tube of the correct adhesive yourself.
 
Glue holding fine so far. Rear side window comes out easily. Raise top enough to access window bracket, unsnap trim around bracket and remove bracket by removing three screws. Window repairman has mobile business and glued window to bracket in my drive way using the same adhesive they use to mount front windshields. Let adhesive dry for 24 hours and reinstall. $75
