Greg,
I don't personally have any experience with this procedure.
I am sure that any good glass shop can explain how those frames and windows
come apart. Years ago someone (actually it was a mad "ex") smashed all of the
windows out of a friend's 1964 Crown Four Door. I gave him my spare set of side
windows to install into his car, and a friend of mine who worked in a glass
shop (no longer in touch with the friend) put all new glass in the other set of
frames. I still have those windows in my garage as a spare set.
Guess I am getting to old to have an angry "ex" do something like that to me. I
think I'll hang on to those windows anyway, though, just in case!
