How to dismantle sliding windows?

Does your Mitsubishi L300 make a strange noise? Need wheel alignment specs?

How to dismantle sliding windows?

Post by STL »

Hi all,

I found a Hyundai H100 sliding door here in France and it has a sliding window (I have fixed glass window). The windows look like the one from the Mitsu.

They need some work to look clean again but I struggle on how to approach the restoration ... :-) How to get the two glasses out? Just remove the run channel gasket and try to get the glass out but how? It seems that there is a sort of frame that if removed could make the whole work a lot easier.

Did anyone try this ? Any suggestion?

Thanks!

I posted about this over on DelicaForum just the other day! http://delicaforum.com/index.php?thread ... ment.1478/
Nothing says "poor workmanship" more than wrinkles in the duct tape.

Ok cool! Many thanks!

It seems that the trick is to pull up the frame to get the glasses out. Didn't think about this one!!! :-)

I'll get back here if I am stuck.

A picture for your great help (remember when you were at primary school 8-) ), somewhere in Portugal this summer:

OK, done. It worked fine. Next, I have to remove the tinting film on the windows -- looks like it would take some time as it is quite old.

Thx again.
