Default Door Window Wedge Question

Both of my door window wedges #6 are missing and I want to replace but PET shows a screw #7 but I don't see a screw hole. Is it attached by the screw or some other method? TIA

IIRC it attaches with a screw from the inside, e.g. on the left side in that pic.

Thanks, I'll have to look a little closer.

The screw is inside the felt channel. Lower the window glass and look carefully for the hole in the felt where the screw would reside.

Wedge has a little tab with screw hole for a little 4mm or so screw. It's the perfect size to drop down into the door when your trim and panels are removed.. Roger has the wedges cheap. And if your window isn't aligned well you'll break your new one- ask me how I know. Thanks for reminding me to buy another from him.

Great info. I'll get them on order along with the little screw. I am so very thankful for all of your knowledge, expertise and willingness to share.

The screw 900 144 008 02 is available (after being NA for a few years) but at $4.45 each a stupid price.
A perfect alternative is 900 145 003 07 at less than a $1 each.
