I am painting and restoring my 1980 930. I have found tech articles about removing the front and rear glass but I can not find any instructions or advice on removing the side quarter (FIXED) windows.

There is a black aluminum trim that goes around the window. It appears to be held together in the corners by an "L" shaped clip.

I haven't tried to pry on it yet to see if it pops off but if someone could give some advice before I do that would be great.

Thanks

They cannot be easy to remove, someone has distorted mine on my 930 in the past

 

I just had my 85 repainted and ran into the same problem, I didn't want any tape lines etc. To make a long story short, we ended up having to mask the rear side windows and just did our best not to have any lines. They did a really good job and only someone with a really trained eye would ever notice. Probably not what you wanted to hear, but if there's an easy way to do we couldn't figure it out.

Mine on my 3.2 have been masked too
