The body guy is at the point I am reloading the doors. While reinstalling the window regulators and the glass, we can not figure out how they attach to each other. Wondering if I am missing clips or a bracket. What am I missing? Suggestions/advise......

Thx

Also he feel real storng about having the doors fully "loaded" before he does his final door fitment. How important is have the extra weight in the doors to finalize the door lines?

Even though I have never done a GTM door, I have done plenty of others, and IMHO, it is IMPERATIVE that you not only have the door complete, but that ALL WEATHERSTRIPPING is in place when fitting/adjusting the doors. If you do not do this, I will bet you $100 your doors will not fit properly when you reinstall them with everything "finished". It IS important to have everything finished up before fitting and finishing the doors as far as seams and alignment goes.

Almost exactly what he said. I even had to go buy additional weather striping.

So how does this glass attach to the regulators?

There are two piece clamps, with rubber inserts, that clamp onto the glass. Each clamp rides on the outer side of the tracks. These are the only pictures I have right now. HTHs.

Is it the big silver "thing" with one bolt in the first photo?

Thx for helping out.
