Default My back window glass popped out?!?

89 XJ driving with 4 tool boxes and one hit the glass when i pulled out real fast into traffic. Nothing looks broken, but the window came right out of the seal. I took the glass out, and put it in my truck. How hard is it to put back in? im currently driving around without hatch glass i dont want to mess anything up more than I already in.

Nothing seems ripped nothing seems broke, I tried briefly but couldnt get it back in.

I would have a profesional put it in for you, prolly be cheaper and safer!!

Permatex "The Right Stuff" works real well. My buddy had this happen on his old XJ. We put it back in with the permatex and it's stayed in so far (it's been about 2 years or so).
