About the story with the different windows in the slider doors... As you probably know, VW redesigned the slider door in 1985 for the 1986 model year. The hinge and roller mechanism was new, the latch was new, the outer handle was new and there was several other modifications also. This was probably when the window was modified too. Why they would modify the window is hard to tell. I, for one, sure don't know. I can just prove that this was not the only modification done this year. PerL 88 Syncro |
