Subject:Vent Wing & Front Guide Channel
From:Jarrett Kupcinski
Date:Tue, 11 Apr 2006 07:42:40 -0500

I started pulling the old, cracked rubber off the passenger side window on
my '89 to replace it.  I discovered that the front guide channel was rusted.
So rusted, in fact, that chunks of it fell into the nether regions of the
door.  I need to replace it.

Does anyone have a donor or know a good source for the guide channel?  It's
the vertical metal piece that runs between the vent wing and the window
proper.  On mine it's black (where it's not rusted).   It's actually riveted
to the frame for the vent wing which makes it a bit of a pain to pull out.

Thanks folks,

Jarrett
