My obscure request of the week. Had to pull off the door inspection plate to try to figure out why my power window wouldn't go up all the way ( bad gear). There is an odd wire "guard" that goes over the lower lock rod. This wire thing is hooked into the inspection cover gasket. Does anyone know what this part is for? Also, anyone have a pic of its correct placement? Certainly a small thing but enquiring minds want to know.
Mike,
Not sure if this is of any help ( I know its from a 76 ) and it may not even show the part you are looking at but....
Any good?

My 72 didn't have any "wire guard" on the lower rod (or any rod actually) there are the sheet metal retainers on the ends to hold them in the linkages but I don't recall anything I'd call a wire guard.
Pics?
