hmmm

 

thats not a rienforcement bar?

 

looks to me like a more sturdy type of window runner!

 

should be riveted inplace top and bottom, so you can drill off the heads and move it for the time being then rivet it back in place once your done.

Nooooo, dont want to be drilling & riviting, it must surely be removeable by the nuts shown top and bottom, im just not sure on what effect this will have without removing the window as I dont want to flex it too much you see?

 

 

well the glass will have too come out for starters before you even touch the runner (which thinking on in a cabbie itd have to sturdier as theres no door pillars to support the glass).

 

after that you can just unbolt and push it down the cavity enough to get at the latch then bolt it all back up once done, shouldnt be any issues with it really :thumb:

Just had a bit of good news from the cabby club. The bar is indeed bolted & you can unbolt it and slide the bar twoard the front of the door. Apparently not hard but awkward due to sharp edges lol.

Lets see how it goes tomorow then eh! lol. Cheers Lee.
