Indeed.  I was in a big hurry, and did in fact did make it work.  Installed
it myself (thanks to extensive training) in a Wal Mart parking lot.
Unfortunately, I was only halfway to my destination and had another 500 mi
to go.  The radio was rendered useless from the overwhelming wind noise, so
it was a long annoying drive.  My right ear is still ringing. Don't want to
do that anymore.

Thanks all for the offers on a replacement window.  But I no longer need, as
I've purchased one from a list member.

Thanks,

James V
