1985 Chevy window removal
« on: March 31, 2009, 04:28:25 pm »
Hey guys. I know this is not really the interior, but I am needing to replace the vent window weatherstripping and the window channel run. Can someone please tell me how to remove the manual windows to put the channel run in? I guess the vent window comes out by taking out the three screws in the top of the door?? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The door glass comes out buy rolling it down and then removing the vent assembly (2 or 3 bolts across the door frame and one at the bottom under the door panel)
and popping it out of the guide and pulling it out. you many need to loosen the rear track some.

So once I pull the vent window, there is nothing really holding the door window in the track? Just wiggle it out?

the rollers are holding the track, you have to move the rollers to the opening to get them out.

Remove the regualr window first completely. Then remove the regulator and then remove the vent window.
