WTB - I need the door glass guide (C4) - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

QB93Z · 07-31-2014

I need the door glass guide for passenger side glass.

This guide (a plastic piece) attaches to the lower, forward corner of the glass and rides on the guide bar to position the glass properly as it is raised.

My guide is broken and the glass goes too far up and then the upper rear corner of the glass hits the edge of the halo when the door is closed.

I believe that the part I need is not year specific, and it is not ZR-1 only.

Anybody got one?

Thanks Phil. I thought it was too obscure a part for eBay. Silly me.

Bought it!!

Jim, I just did this repair as well. You're going to have fun with the nut that holds that stop/guide on. The back side is basically a big washer with 2 opposing holes and you have to either buy the tool ($65) or improvise. I used a set of 90 degree needle nose pliers. It is very tight and has thread locker on it. That was the most difficult part of the install. The only difficult part actually.

Does anybody know if these will work on a 90 or 91? I know it was an improvement for all MY92s and up because of the rattle glass problems in 90and 91 when the windows are down. Anybody has this mod or done this yet? I dont think so im not sure if the 90s and 91s have the rod guide that holds this stop in the window, nor the hole in the window where the guide stop goes? Phil ??/ Anybody please advise -=JEFF=- ?

Note to JIM I think I have this specific socket with the two tines on it. LMK if you like to borrow it? Also Jim great pics below of the work details.

Jim - If the tool is available I would def use it. It can be done without it but that spanner nut is so tight with the thread lock it can be very frustrating. Just my .02 worth...

GC, if I decide to do my passenger side while it's fresh in my mind do you mind a quick loan of the socket?

I messaged Dan (Y-ME) and he mentions having likely a '94 glass as well as an earlier than '90 glass so he's going to lay them one on another and compare the holes. I read that the holes were changed many years ago but I'm not so sure, he can confirm. '90 and earlier glass is SoftRay, '91 is EZKool and it would be interesting to know what the '93+ door glass were. Were there actually changes physically to the glass or just the tint and maybe the sourcing. Anyone with a '94 or '95 want to confirm the branding on the door glass 'bug'?

If the glass matches then if a person cannibalized some '93+ doors for the guides then all years could be updated.

Funny I checked this thread out tonight, as we had the ZR-1 out for dinner earlier, and I noticed the exact thing that is mentioned here is happening to my RS door glass, leaving a mark on the halo.......now I know how to correct the problem.....great info.....
