I got the weatherstripping removed without hurting it. Also got he headliner out in good shape. As long as it cleans up good I will reuse it. The car was smoked in so it is stained really bad. I sure hope to reuse the headliner and also marked the holes that the bows come out of so I can put it back right were it was. I am glad to see the roof…[Read more]

If you’re able to find one, the factory manual lists tool #J-7898-01 for the reveal molding trim removal. Here’s the factory manual page with a photo and instructions how to use it.

Thanks for the information Mac. I will check them out. My trim was even all the way around and I am sure the back glass has never been out so I am assuming that I have to have the different lengths of clips.

[quote quote=14921]Eric, how did you get the glass out without cutting the gasket? Steel Rubber has the gaskets but I don’t know how good they are.

Steele does make the back window gasket. I used one and it worked great, no leaks. Here’s a copy of the Steele instructions. All of my trim clips for the top and side trim pie…[Read more]

Does anyone know what year S10 MC I need and if I need a booster or not?

We do need access to it. I don’t know anything about how forums work. I just sent Rick and email to see if he can add one.

Nobody else concerned about loosing access to all that banked info?

My quest is to reuse as much as I possibly can on this car so disassembly is taking much longer than usual. I was able to get the back glass out without hurting the rubber seal and was also able to get the package tray out without hurting the foam rubber or vinyl on the front edge. I also got the insulation under the package tray out and will…[Read more]

I can’t edit the last post. The hard to see number is .306 NOT what is posted in the last post. The first post is correct but hard to see the numbers.

The .360 did not show up well in the above ones so here is another one where you can see the number better
