So I went to fit rear opening windows to the 318is tonight but ended fcuking up both window.

Basically by being stupid and trying to rush I sheared the bottom bolt off the drivers side one and snapped the bottom hinge on the passanger side one.

Is there anyway to fix these / replace the hinge mechanisms or have I just buggered two perfectly good windows?

Thanks
John

I'd have to say that yes, you've buggered them. The time it would take to fix probably outweighs the ease of finding new ones....

Sorry!

Thanks for the reply Chris - that's a pain, and I feel really stupid.

Anyone got two rear opening windows to sell?? :cry:
