[DeTomaso] FW: Driver's window removal

[Doug Braun]

Dave,

	I just posted a question about door glass removal without having read all
the posts this morning.  To my delight, here was the answer, but I have a
question.  At the step that says "Remove rear glass screws" where are these
screws?  I see two bolts, one from the outside rear of the door above the
latch and one inside the door below the latch that secure the rear window
run.  Is this what you mean?

Please pass this to the list Chris, I can at least see the post when
you do it.

The service manual instructions are correct:

- Remove armrest handle and trim panel including weathershield

- Remove inner glass weatherstrip

- Remove rear glass screws. Be sure window is fully raised.

- Lower window enough to remove the retaining nuts and washers that
attach the door glass to the regulator.

- Aug73 build-date or later cars require these additional steps prior to the
last step of removing the glass:
	- Remove door exterior handle - see Section 44
      - Remove latch actuating rod.
	- Remove door latch - see Section 44

- Carefully remove the glass by letting it slide down to bottom of travel,
rotate rear of window upward, then extract it vertically through the slot.
