    The track of the window screw in, did you price new windows at rovers north, I'm not sure if they are more or less money then getting new windows made.

    so are the screws under the felt on the inside of the track? or inside the door panel? if theyre under the felt how do you get the felt back in after you put it back together?

    so i checked rovers north = $99 and change w/o s&h
    i also found one day glass = $33 and change w/o s&h
    i think ill go with one day glass they want $25 for s&h so i can get the glass shipped for less than just the glass at rovers north

    The screws in side the track, the felt will need to be glued back in once everything is done. You should only have to remove the top track if you want to replace the sliding window. Your luck the window that does not slide looks like a pain to remove. Good luck

    I've replaced these out on my series II and aeries III ..unless these have recently been replaced you will probably need to get a new set of lower tracks. Water settles in there when it rains and the tiny sheet mettle screws are made of soft metal (if stock) ... the threads rust and bind with the frame and the heads strip easily. Make sure you get the screw driver well set on the hed before attempting to remove (I screwed it up).

    Both windows can be removed by just removing the lower tracks ... you don't have to mess with the upper ones.

    AB has window channel p/n 5768 and 5767 for about $30 for all 4 pieces. Totally Stainless has any screw you'd ever need for a Series and they'll sell 1 or 100. totallystainless.com in Gettysburg.

    Just wondering, were your windows locked? I never lock mine, since only 2 out of 4 window locks even work on mine.
