OK, got the door card off without breaking anything (other than six of the glued-on mount points which I will try to hot-glue* back on tomorrow). Got the window back up and secured with a strong suction cup for now.
I use gorilla tape on the vertical edges to hold a window while waiting for parts
Code:
Found a busted carrier clip and the black piece. "Oh I have new ones!" Yeah, for the FRONT doors. Why would they use different clips for the back doors? So I gotta get those on order. edit: found this repair kit on ebay, ordered that.
The third is the difference between the front door clip (top) and the busted rear door clip. I can't find the part number for that, realoem doesn't show it.
The clips aren't a separate part you can only get third party
Code:
The fourth is this air hose that slips onto a fitting on the back of the alternator. I have no idea what it does, but I got it popped back on. Doubt it's related to my IAC valve issue — I have a cheap amazon part coming tomorrow. I think Rock Auto is closing out genuine Bosch parts for $60 "FAMOUS BRAND ABC3727" but I'll try the cheap one first.
The hose on the alternator is air duct for cooling similar to the ducts that go from the grill to the front wheel brakes
Code:
*someone recommended black JB Weld which I used on one of the front door cards, but it's not that secure. I tried using a heat gun on the old glue residue left on the card which made it nice n sticky, but there isn't enough adhesive left to do much.
You can buy butyl tape to replace worn out from re-use door card seals.
