85 vent windows

Has anyone tried this set-up for there 2 piece vent windows yet? It comes complete and connects to the window runner. I guess you just bend the little tabs and do the switch-a-roo.

No but i'd like to know how that turns out. I have an 85 custom and both mine need replacing.

Re: 85 vent windows

I'm not sure what you mean by "just bend the little tabs" . Its a bit more complicated than that, but not too bad. Its easier with a spotter if you have window tint you want to save.

Re: 85 vent windows

So it's rivets that holds the window runner to the frame?

Yes, but these are already assembled. removing and replacing isnt hard, just tedious work. Take your time and remember how it comes out. If you dont take mental notes along the way, it will fight you going back in.
