[DML] Re: Window replacement

["DMC Joe" <dmcjoe@xxxx>]

Before considering removing the fixed glass window in your gullwing doors be
aware that this item helps to keep the door rigid. Without the fixed glass
the door becomes very flexible causing misalignment of the door latches when
attempting to close the door. This will not only cause problems closing and
opening the doors it can also damage the door latches.

If you still want to attempt this modification you may want to contact Bob
Brandys <oehcs@xxxx>, he performed this modification several years ago
at a cost of $8,000.
