Default Power window on manual window door
I just replaced the door on my 68. The car has power windows but the door was manual window door. The motor and window tracks both fit perfectly. once door was hung I realized there is no wire grommet hole in end of door. I haven't removed the door to investigate but I was wondering by chance is there a knock out piece or will this need to be drilled?
