I started pulling the old, cracked rubber off the passenger side window on my '89 to replace it. I discovered that the front guide channel was rusted. So rusted, in fact, that chunks of it fell into the nether regions of the door. I need to replace it.
Does anyone have a donor or know a good source for the guide channel? It's the vertical metal piece that runs between the vent wing and the window proper. On mine it's black (where it's not rusted). It's actually riveted to the frame for the vent wing which makes it a bit of a pain to pull out.
Thanks folks,
