    Anyone out here with the rear glass out?
    I need rear window opening dimensions.

    At the moment, I have 1/2 " difference between the two cars. and in both cars,
    we replaced the body part at both window bottoms, were quite rusted out.

    This, measured at the center from top to bottom.
    Same, +/- where the glass makes the corner.

    Regards, Alberto

    I have 2 cars here with glass out. I'm not sure exactly what measurement you want?

    Jon, thanks for offering.

    The dimensions are on the vertical,
    distance , in the center.

    Then, with an accurate, horizontal distance both to the left and to the right, more or less where the glass makes a 90 deg. turn, same horizontal distance both to the left and to the right, dimensions always on the vertical.

    Do both cars you have there, have the same opening dimensions?

    Regards, Alberto

    Here we go. Height from center flange to bottom flange, where gasket resides.
    Center, and sides, where glass takes a 90 deg turn.

    It would be great to have reference points, i.e. distance from center to the side heights, on the horizontal plane, on the lower flange.

    Thank you.

    Regards, Alberto

    For clarity, I would put in some arrows detailing the exact spots where you need the measurements. I guess Photoshop would be the way to go.

    ... or tape string lines between exact points you wish to reference.

    If you don't get an answer sooner, the rear glass should be out of mine in a few weeks and I can measure.

    Hope this is clear enough. Just did not know how to do it, but found a decent solution with the arrows.

    Please note, I also need the distance on the horizontal between the arrows.
