914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Outer window fuzzy - removal

Posted by: EJP914 Nov 16 2008, 09:33 AM

Outer window fuzzys have dry rotted and falling out of the track. Is there an easy way to remove them without taking the window out of the door? I think if I can get the window low enough in the door I should be able to get to the 3 screws that hold the fuzzys in place. I see there is a 13mm bolt that goes thru a white plastic block that I think holds the window to the up/down mechanism. IF I take this bolt out, will it allow the 2 arms to come out of the track and let the window drop? I didn't want to take the entire chrome window pillar, door glass, and vent glass all apart since it is adjusted very well with no gaps or leaks. BTW, car is '74.
I guess there is no way to just slide the new fuzzys into the track from the end of the door? That would be too easy! Appreciate the suggestions.

I had to remove the chrome 'A'pilar frame and glass and remove the window off the track. Take your time working the new fuzzy on. It's not a easy job. bye1.gif Maybe this will help:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=88650&st=20
