<VV> Replacing Door Glass - LM

[Marc Marcoulides]

Ian, been there, done that. What I did was to competely dis-assemble the door tracks, bead blast the metal surface and had a glass shop re-attach the rubber thing. I also bought Clarks replacement pieces for the tracks. The reason I did it that way is (for me) so much work to get to it I don't want to have to go back in for another 40 years.
