Hello fellas-I apologize if this has already been covered- but Bentley has failed me, as has a search.  How do I remove the interior latch on the sliding glass window inside of a 1985 Westfalia?  Thanks,Geneva and Mike85 Bostig (now with high top!) 

I made a small, right-angled screw driver.
There is a small standard screw in the bottom of the latch.
You can see and feel the hole in the latch. 
I bent a small standard screw driver so I ended up with a 
handle that sticks out of the bottom hole 90 degrees.
Just made it easier to apply enough pressure to unscrew
and tighten that screw. You'll feel it drop into the slot if you
stick the blade up into the hole and move it around carefully.
