'69 RR coupe

How does the door glass and vent windows come out. FSM doesn't show enough detail - says to remove a bolt and move the slide forward - I can't even find the bolt they're talking about !!

What about the catwhiskers, do they have to come out first ??

The more detail the better.

Thanks.

Window sweeps come off prying them up and slightly toward the inside of the door. Next there should be 2 plastic plugs in the front upper part of the door, loosen/remove those bolts behind the plugs, there is also a nut on the bottom of the door in a recessed hole that holds the lower portion of the vent window track. Small plastic plug is next in the upper door frame right below where the arm locks the wing window. There is an allen bolt behind it that pinches the vent window frame in place it has a small square block that it threads into that will fall to the bottom of the door so be ready. Next loosen the rear window track. Unbolt the regulator, 3 bolts, all while holding the glass to keep it from falling and possibly breaking. Now you can maneuver the glass up and down until you get the arm to come out of the track. Glass and vent window assembly should now lift out the top of the door as a unit. Good luck
also don't forget to remove the screws in the weather stripping where it attaches to the vent window frame.

Just loosen the allen head bolt behind the plastic plug at the top of the door. You don't need to remove it and have the square block fall down.


...FAFO...

oh yeah.... sorry. even though i have done this a bunch of times on various cars i ALWAYS forget that it's easier to PULL the pin out of the middle than it is to try and push it.
