RE: [T3] rear window popouts


You're talking about Fastback pop-outs?  Yes, they are removable.  From the
inside there are sheetmetal screws (don't remember how many.  3 or 4?) under
the rubber lip.  With the screws removed, the whole window/frame assembly
can be removed.  Check the list archives.  A couple years ago I asked a
similar question and somebody gave a nice and very detailed response, which
I printed out but don't have handy.  But if your windows don't leak and they
are in decent shape, I wouldn't mess with them.  Just mask them off for a
repaint.  I'd be afraid of screwing up an otherwise decent seal.
Replacement pop-out seals are very difficult to find, and they are usually
very expensive.  Even the non pop-out seals are getting very scarce.
