Re: Grrr.... I'm an idiot!
 

Thats the funny part, I actually keep a spare ignition key in my CJ-7, in
the soft top door. But not on my Cherokee.

I was able to find a used replacement window on my luch break (after calling
every salvage place in town). Only cost $32.50. I got off easy! Lowest
quote on a new one was $182.

If you have a couple of screwdrivers handy, you can pry the window out
without destroying it. But, it sounds like I am a few hours late on offering
this helpful advice.

The wind wing style window of the front or rear door? And I'll send
you some instructions.
I wire an outside key to something underneath the front bumper for
over forty years, haven't had to use it yet. It's like the part you've
once broken, caring a spare and it never breaks again.

As a spelunker, finding ones self deep in the mountains of Mexico with
out your car key is a bummer (or here at home on MooMesa Ranch is almost
as bad). I do the same, wire or screw a spare key underneath and forget
about it. No zip ties either, been there done that. And magnetic key
boxes, yeah right, as if.
