Remove quarter window (coupé)
 

Hi all,

Here's a question: how do I remove the quarter window and the chrome C-pillar trim on a 93 Coupé?

I have removed all the nuts including the two that can be reached through the ratholes just above the backset. At the B-pillar the windows will nudge, but in the back (C-pillar) it will not move a bit. Do I need to remove the C-pillar chrome trim first and if so, how do I do this? Or is it just stuck because of the foam? Your comments and help would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry I don't have the answer...but I need to know this myself. Some rust issues around mine.

I have managed to remove them! This is how it is done:

• remove all interior trim (seats, backs quarter panels, B-pillar and trim that sits against the headliner)
• this reveals a whole bunch of nuts (8mm), 3 at the top, 2 on the b-post and 3 at the bottom (all are pretty easy to remove except the one which is most to the back (need to remove the panel (plastic) behind the seat-backs to get better access
• through two ratholes in the c-post there are two more nuts with slightly bigger washers, be careful not to drop them whilst they come off!
• gently push the windows out starting at the b-pillar and then the bottom
• clear the top edge of the chrome trim and make sure someone is assisting you when you move back into the car to push the window out from the c-post
• the screw-ends may sometimes get a bit stuck in the holes in the bodywork but with a little force you can push them out

The picture shows the two ratholes in the c-post
