Thread: D1 Pass. side window problem.

youv'e got to lift the window to make the scissors fit ...........other than that sorry I can not be of any further help...sorry

ho har

G'day 4bee,
The photo is a help but, I think it might be different to my '96. Can you slide the sliders into the end of the track or is the end of the track crimped to stop them sliding out? If it is crimped you can open up the end of it with a screwdriver or similar, which is what I had to do on the back door ones.

I remember connecting the winder motor and moving the regulator arms up or down until they were in a convenient place to work on; but the track was definitely srewed to the door frame separately

Chas, they are open ended not crimped so must slip in from the ends, but which ones?

It must be do-able, so I suppose it's a matter of somehow getting the blocks to the end & then in like a slippy thing.
The problem is getting them in position to face the open ends.

This may be by moving the motor/winder assy with one hand while trying to getting the scissors to move & trying to amputate my fingers with the other. This may also require the door top frame to be slid out again for the motor to move. That I can do with my 5th hand.
They obviously ain't called scissors for nothing, if you get me drift.
If the door didn't have an inner skin it would be wonderful but, hey ho.
Back at it again this morning to give me plenty of time for many deep breaths & calming cups of tea.

The other self induced problem is that before I commenced assy, I lightly greased all the moving bits & tracks. With all the faffing about guess where the grease is now?


See above post from Erich re door changes in '94. Probably 1 more day & mine may have had removable tracks as well.

Thanks for trying to help, I'll post more if I still have all me fingers at the end of the day.
