[Alpines] window regulator and wiper questions

[Paul R. Breuhan]

Bill,
Keep the wiper assembly, you never know what parts you might need.

The window glass sits in a channel and there should be a stop (a little
aluminum rectangle) on both ends that screws in to prevent too much movement
up or down. You need them out to completely remove or install the glass.
