    Okay Tim. I didn't know. When I did the mod with the brackets you made which are GREAT, I justlowered the window down far enough to see the plastic tabs which were not broken, took a piece of duct tape on the outside of the glass and over the top of the door to support it, unbolted, flat tip screw stick to bust the tabs, some epoxy in the channel of the new bracket, slipped on the glass, lined up the bolts while epoxy was still wet, removed tape, ran window up and left it for 24 hours. Year, or the best part later, haven't looked back

    I removed the window too... it's literally a 3 second process... Just a weird angle and it's out... I used Contractors grade Hot Glue... Haven't had a problem since...

    It was the very very first thing I did to my VX... as the window tab broke 2 minutes after I bought the VX... got home, got online (here) found out about the brackets... ordered them, installed them in the driver's side (haven't done passenger yet) in less than 30 minutes...
