Cab quarter window fixings

[richlaz]

On my little quarter opening window in the cab, on the top bracket/fixing... the thread is knackered, therefore the glass is loose and causing a horrible annoying whistling sound as I'm driving

Does anyone know if/where I could get a new fixing? There's a few places that sell the glass, seals etc, but can't find the fixings anywhere

Failing that, I think as a last resort I could drill straight through the fixing... and put a nut and bolt through

Any ideas?

I will watch for the answer for this one too as we have exactly the same problem - fingers crossed someone will know

Large pop rivet generally the best or at least most practical solution.

I think I've just found the parts

£30 for a full set of hinges (both sides)... not sure exactly how they're attached to the door/window frame... will do some investigating

Pop rivet is a good idea actually... I didn't think of that... As long as the pressure doesnt crack/shatter the glass
