A window assembly for use in a vehicle comprises a glass panel having inner and outer sides. A latch element having a latch attachment portion and at least one hinge element having a hinge attachment portion are joined via a substantially cured adhesive at the inner side of said glass panel such that there is no exposure of the latch element and the hinge element on the outer side of the glass panel. The substantially cured adhesive is selected from the group consisting of a moisture-activated adhesive, a thermally-activated adhesive, a chemically-activated adhesive, an aerobically-cured adhesive, an anaerobically-cured adhesive, and a radiation-cured adhesive. The window assembly is adapted for mounting on the vehicle such that when fitted within a generally vertical window opening of the vehicle, the glass panel will be generally vertically mounted, and the window assembly preferably comprises one of a side window, rear window, and lift gate window of the vehicle.
