Default Window Guide Fixed

Thanks to a great write-up by Rickreeves1 , I was able to fix my drivers door window stop. This is what makes this forum so great. The search forum is your friend. The part was 16 bucks. A dealership would have charged me at least 1 hour labor. (it took me 4 ). Thanks Rick for an informative write-up. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...dow+stop+guide

Harbor freight sell a pin wrench that works well for this job but it is adjustable and takes a little time to set it. PIA isn't it?

It was a PITA. I used this high tech tool

I grabbed the ac adaptor with a pliers. Hey what can I say, it worked.
