Door glass tracks/runners

[artyfartymarty]

my FB driver door window runner is gone, to the point where the window now drops off the track when wound down (thats my air con )
anyway theyre rusted through and totally disintegrated on the drivers door.
does anyone know if theyre repoduced? rares etc
or if 2nd hand are they interchangeble, ie can i use one off a rear door, other model holden etc or failing getting replacement has anyone had some custom pressed from sheetmetal?
i kow they make up the 1/4 window assembly but i also saw a thread on pulling this apart and getting it all back together.

Hey Marty

Cheggy

Rare spares have them both right and left side but its a changeover item so you'll need to take yours in.

Check this out though, might be of help to you.there are a few of us in WA that could grab them for you if the seller is unwilling to post.

Cheggy,
Another option, if you're a modder rather than a restorer is to do away with the 1/4 window all together. I think Blacky has done that on his ute. Send him a PM I've check out the build if you're interested.

If you dont do any good with the runners. Spectrum auto rubber used to sell replacement type runner. They arent holden units so you will need to modify them to suit your car. You also need to get the different thicknesses rubber they sell and try the one tgat holds the glass in tight.
Ived used them on other cars as a last resort.
