yes, there is a frame that the glass is glued to. the hinges are bolted to the frame, and through the body. If you have an 83 car, there are two access plugs (rectangular) that you can remove to access the four bolts. If its a power sunroof car, then you have to remove the rear headliner panel to get to the bolts.
Disconnect the struts, disconnect the wiring (wiper, defroster, 3rd brake light), and remove those 4 bolts and it will come right off.

hi kcwsJim;
thanks for the info
the reason for my question is that the hatch on the 928 is HEAVY and i was wondering if i could do some alterations so only the glass opened, something like a 911 targa?? for example.
anyway thanks for your time
