Jackal: What's up? Thank you for joining the Eli Frequency Podcast. I'm your host, Jack O Baby. You could have been anywhere in the world right now, but you took the time to come here and spend it with me, and I appreciate that. So it's not to waste it. Let's get to it. What we're talking about, you know. I just met one of the most amazing men that I'm ever gonna meet. His name's Savon or Savon from Savon Autoglass.com. And I called him because well I called several people, probably ten shops, and asked them one thing. Can they change out my back glass in my cyber truck? And everybody was like, no, we can't touch it. It's a Tesla. Or, you know, even the people who were the collision, I call collision places, because they usually can do anything. They will come out and look at it and be like, no, I don't know, it looks complicated. Because I wanted to put the breezer window in. And you can check that out at breezerwindle dot com. And nobody was able to do it. So I'm thinking either I was gonna have to send the window back. Or wait until I travel to like one of these places like California where I seen somebody do it to get it done. Or order the tools off Amazon, which I have on order right now, to do it myself. You know, I wasn't afraid to do it myself because if I had to break the window, whatever the case may be, I mean, I don't care. I'm not gonna use the window anymore anyway. It's it's gone, you know. If I have to get a new window, I'll pay for a new window to be put in, but I was definitely determined to get that window out. So on my way, so Safelite Autoglass told me that they can do it. And I was like, okay, so my last bet is to go through them. So I booked an appointment with them. And yesterday they called me and said that they couldn't do it because it's a cyber truck and you know, they thought it was the windshield and all this other stuff. So they couldn't do it. So I was just looking through Google and I happened to be in St. Louis Park and I seen Savan Auto Glass. And I said, you know what? Before I go home, let me check this one more place out. I'm so tired of getting nose. You know, I was like I said, I ordered the materials. I was just gonna do it myself. Or attempt it myself. I was gonna get the glass out one way or another. So that wasn't the issue. it was not spilling fragments of the glass into the back tunnel cup opening where the tunnel goes down. That was my concern if I had to break the glass. or if the glass broke while I was attempting to remove So I went over to his his his shop and I had already taken the the top Panel over the glass off, and there are two panels on the bottom where the glass is. I already took those off because I wanted to make it as easy as possible for people to see that they may be able to do it. Because with those panels covers on, it looked very intimidating. And you you all know that I have the the ceiling panel that closes and opens. I even took that down off my roof, which is hell to get back

up, right? So I'm gonna have I so don't look forward to putting that back up. But I will put it back up because I bought it and you know sometimes on hot days, even though I put a tent on this PPF tent on this, the sun still beams through. Yeah, the UV rays don't, but the sun still kicks my ass. So I'm definitely putting that back up. I just don't look forward to it because it was hell. This one big piece. And it's Not the newer model where it's easier to go in. Anyway, so I took that down. I made trying to make it as easy as possible for people to not be intimidated when I sing when they seen the roof or the back. And I'm like, look, those are the clip I even broke the clips off the windows where the window that the guides where the windows go in. I even broke those off myself. So One shop looked at it and said, I don't know, I'm gonna I'm gonna ask my boss, but then we'll get back to you. And I'm like When people say that they never get back to you. So I was I seen one more place in St. Louis Park and I said, let me try this. So I went to his shop and he he's a Hispanic guy who has his own shop, which is a plus. I feel like it's always the people who have their like their own facility or something like that that'll try stuff like this. Like me. I'm willing to try anything because I believe I can do anything I set my mind to, right? And so he was looking at it, he was. confused about how he can get to it and 'cause it's not a lot of space to get to that back glass. And he was thinking about I'm sure ways he can probably accomplish this and But the scary thing, I think, to people is how can I accomplish this without scratching or messing up his vehicle? Because his vehicle is brand new, number one. It's totally custom dead. Almost every inch of the vehicle is custom. That's number two. and on top of that, there's not a lot of space to do what he needs to do in this truck. You can't move the rear seat. backs they don't move they're stable so how can he get to this glass the tonneau cover is right there I even took the the covering off of where the Cap my camera on the roof is. Because that's a challenge. People see that and see it can't get to the window and I can't get to the window. But it's two screws in that that you gotta take off and those are not easy. And mine were stripped because I had to take them off to put the camera on, so I stripped one of fortunately because I didn't use the right bit for the job. I used a square bit and it was causing for a star bit. But the square bit was working until it didn't. So I was able to get the screws out and I left them off, because that thing it pops in and pops out. So it should be secure. And when I took it to him, I said, look, this just pops out. So I showed them. And then you can get to the whole back window from outside in the tunnel in the bed of the truck. You can get to the whole back window. And he was like he said man, I don't know. He wanted to do it, but it looked like it could be complicated and you know, but like I said, he's like me. He wanted to, he, he's up for challenges. And he said, let me talk to because he had a partner. Well, it's his business, but he has a his cousin is his partner. He said, let me let me get back to you and see see what we can do. This was yesterday, Friday. And so he said he talked to his today when I got there, he said he talked to his cousin, and his cousin who works with him was like, No, don't do it, man. You might break something. it's not gonna be easy. And and he said his wife was even saying, Are you sure you wanna do this? and so I sent them a video of a man in who has a a autoglass business in California. I sent him a video of him doing Because I wanted to give I wanted to give him all the information he needed to see that it can be done. People are doing this. Right. And so I messaged text messaged him yesterday and he said he was real busy yesterday so he couldn't get around to it. but he'll let me know. This morning I wake up and I get a text message. I'm still in bed. And he says he has time today. if we want to get it, if we want to work on it, he has until noon. I said, on my way. It's like at nine o'clock. Jumped up, threw my clothes on, brushed my teeth, headed it his way. And so he and I both looked at the challenges that we thought we might come across and I was explaining things about the truck and he was explaining things about the tools he used and the tools he weren't wasn't gonna be able to use because the the the area he had wasn't sick adequate enough for him to fit those tools in there. So he wanted to use this blade tool that I'm sure all the autoglass people are familiar with that you drag with this handle. And so he said, I'll do that from the outside, and then I'll I'll maybe do the wire from the inside. And so he started with the blade tool on the outside, and in some places it was going really smooth, but then he got to those clips. Even though I had popped them, it still was rough at those clips because Those clips still have a piece that's glued to the window, and you still have to break it. So me popping the clips may or may not have helped. He still had to get through them with the blade tool. And so he did that. And that was he got we we got some success on that. I went in, pushed the window. He seen that it gave a little give. And he was like, okay, good. We we got a little give give, so we can probably fit the wire or the string tool the string in between and then finish it with the string tool. But then he said he wanted to use his other tool, his other favorite tool. It looks like a big flat-inch screwdriver at the top that goes into the the the the hexaw brrrr and so he was doing that from the inside and he wore was watering it down I got some of this footage of it I'll show I'll put that up too and I was on the outside telling them I can see it and he got a lot of it done and I said wait and we decided we needed to put the suction on the back
window we didn't want the window to fall into where the tunnel is because that would be a whole nother huge problem. So he gave me this suction so I can hold it while he went inside and cut. And so he cut and he got it probably 90% cut. And he was gonna come on outside to look at it. And then I bent it towards me. And then it pretty much. And we both were happily surprised when it did. He was like, Hey, how'd you do that? How'd you get it off? I was like, I don't know. I pulled it towards me and it came off. So we were both excited because we got it it it it happened. The window came off and I've been wanting so bad for that to happen. And it and just to see no window being there. Felt so good. He was happy. I was happy. Now we were able to see exactly how the window goes, how it's on there. And he was able to get a lot of information from that for the next truck he does. he says he can do it in like maybe 30 minutes because you know now he can see everything and how it's on and what he needs to do. And and I was happy because I was there with him the whole way. helping and watching and so the tool he used to scrape the polyurethane off the off the excess polyurethane off was it just came off like s butter and He put the primer on and he he was just looking at the window, how small it was, and then he put the polyurethane on and he said he said it cures in like 30 minutes. And so you know, he he was he was adjusting it, making sure the clips fit the right way. And thanks to Breezer Window, the clips are perfectly in place because if they weren't it would be a problem because that polyurethane would it would cure really fast and you would be having a problem because one of the the guides isn't lined up right so that has to be perfectly lined up and they are so thanks to breezer they're lined up perfectly So he got it in, pushed in, he came inside, looked at it, and he said, Hold on, three of the clips aren't all the way in. I said, they look like they all the way in. So he went outside and pushed, and you heard click, click, click, and he said, There they go. I was like, okay, all right, all right, you got it. And so they clicked in and I went and made sure the window came out and went back. I showed him how the window came out and went back in and He's excited about that. His friend, he's gonna order one because he has a Cybertruck. And I'm just so excited to have even met Sivon because to do the whole thing probably took about 45 minutes to an hour. But I was there for over three hours because he and I were just talking about. that I was talking to him about how he started his company and I don't know. he's just somebody I have the utmost respect for and I I really enjoyed meeting him more than I did getting the breezer Rendle put in and I was really excited to get that put in but I really, really have tremendous amount of respect for him, how he came here, how he built this business and and what he's done and him doing that for me. I can't say
how grateful I am for him doing that. So hopefully every time I run into people who have the cyber truck, and hopefully people who hear this who have the cyber truck, if you want the breezer window put in, you're not gonna find people in the Midwest that's gonna do it. But Savon. Autoglass.com. He will be able to do it. He does great work. Man, it it's I can't say too much more about him. It's just I'm I'm happy I ran into him. And I have to tell as many people as possible. So here's his business card right here. S-A-V-O-N Autoglass dot com or nine five two seven six nine four zero four six. He can do it. He'll do an excellent job. He also tints windows. He can tint whatever you want. If you want a full front windshield tint, he can do it. he does an excellent job. He can tint this big window up here, all windows. And he he he I believe he can rap. He can do a a rap. I was telling him about me rapping my own and I told him he's a professional tenter. The reason I knew I could do the rap is because I t I can tint. And I'm not a professional tinter, even though I tinted my own windows. I'm a person that can tint windows. I'm not a professional tenter. I I I the this the the difference what distinguishes a professional tenter between a person that can tent to me is one person makes a living off doing that job. I don't make a living off doing that. I do it for my vehicles, maybe a friend's vehicle. I probably could make a living off of it, but I'm not. he makes a living tinting windows, replacing autoglass, fixing autoglass. So he's a professional. Shop with him and to hear him. compliment my vehicle and the things I've done to it. And he's a professional at like the tinting windows and he appreciated what I did. And he was surprised I didn't use heat for my windows when I applied the tint. And I told him about tact, you know, which is something I picked up learning how to tint windows. he used heat. I use you know, alcohol and water when we I wanted to tack. so yeah, just just some tricks of the trade. We were able to give each other share with one another and I'm totally grateful for that. I feel really appreciative and I can't wait for to hear him tell me that he's done another breezer window. in a cyber truck. It will really make my day if he tells me he did another breezer window and it came from my recommendation. So if you have a cyber truck and you're in the Midwest in Minnesota, Go to Savon Autoglass. And you can get a breezer window from breezerwindows.com. And what that is, is it makes it, it allows you to be able to get circulation from inside of the cab of the truck into the bed of the truck. They give you the wet the frame and the window that comes out. And the exhaust that hooks to the ventilation in the car all the way to the the mesh screen system on the back window so you can get that airflow heat or air conditioning into the cab of the truck for your pets, animals, or if you're camping in the back of the truck. And I finally got it done, and nobody would do it. I went to so many shops and nobody I kept getting no. So please if you are in Minnesota. Call him, he can do it, and you may get a per better percentage if you tell him that Jacko told you Yeah. So other than that, I appreciate y'all. Thanks for watching. Thanks for sharing.
