Subject:      Supplier of sliding window guide

Anybody find a supplier of the little plastic sliding window guides?  I
bought some from the Busdepot a while ago but the last time I tried to get a
few they were no longer available, and the VW dealer says they are
discontinued.  FYI, some of you may have done this already to keep those
little guides from sliding out of the older vanagons (my westy is an '84)
but I used a dremel to modify/update the aluminium track (the one that is
glued on the sliding window) so that the updated/newer plastic guides snap
into place (I took a little notch out of the inside ridge and shaved down
the ridge from my notch to the end of  the track) ...I got tired of
modifying the updated plastic guides to fit my '84 and gluing them into
place only to watch my kids open the windows and see the pieces eventually
work loose and fly off..argh!!!  Anyway I had two spares and now nee another
two.  Thanks.
