[alfa] Berlina Door Glass Removal

[Damian Magista <magista@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to everyone who replied to my Berlina door glass removal 
question. The puzzle has been solved and for anyone interested here is 
how you remove the glass from Berlina doors:

1. Carefully remove the chrome trim. It is crimped on, I used a screw 
driver to carefully loosen one end. You should remove the upper portion 
first, then the lower. Remove both inside and outside trim in the same 
manner. It comes off fairly easily but be careful not to bend or tweek 
it too much.

2. Remove inner door panel.

3. You will now be able to see the winder mechanism. On the bottom of 
the window there are crimped on rails that the winder arm mechs attach 
to and create a little track. This is what moves the window up or down. 
In the tracks there are either one or two holes near one end (depending 
on if you are doing the front door or rear door glass). This is how you 
connect or disconnect the winder arms. Position the arms so that you 
can detach them via these holes.

4. Unscrew the winder mech from the door itself (hint: hang on to the 
glass). Once this is done you can angle the glass and carefully slide 
it out of the door.

All and all it's not too hard to do.
