Although maintenance repairs for your Honda Accord may be infrequent, an unexpected repair such as a cracked side window can occur at any time. The causes can range from flying objects at high speeds to the glass window having a natural defect. If that should happen, take the time to fix the damage yourself with supplies purchased from any local auto store.

Mix a cleaning solution with water and detergent. No measurements are necessary. Simply add enough detergent to the water in order to create a sudsy solution. Wash the window down, rinse it with water and then dry it off to start the repair with a clean surface.
2Put on the goggles and remove pieces of broken glass from within the cracks if possible. Use the razor blade to pick the pieces out carefully.
3Adhere the suction cup stabilizer to the window. Pressing on it firmly will give you the best suction between the two elements.
4Place the resin tube into the injector, and then push the injector into its spot on the stabilizer.
5Remove the injector once it is in place to allow for the resin to be drawn into the cracks.
6Remove the suction cup from the window once the resin tube is emptied.
7Cut a strip of adhesive curing film and place it over the entire repair. Remove the strip after a few hours of curing time. Once the resin has hardened, you can remove the strip.
