Can you heat up the screws to undue the locktite? I would like to remove them, but I don't want to risk breaking the glass. It was discussed here recentley, whether to rememove or not remove the side glasses on vans. It seemed that the majority of everyone on here recommended leaving them in, b/c you can still get the job to come out good trimming around the latches and you don't risk breaking the glass.

sometimes you can super heat the buttons and get the loc tight to break free.... The last one I did had no such luck....

:beer I hate working on these and the ford cargo vans because more often then not the latches/screws are rusted, so they just strip when you try and remove them.

All the custies I've had understand that you just have to cut around them, like the rectangle latches at the top, if you leave a very small, even gap its not a problem :beer

leave 1/16" around buttons and use some moleskin it looks nice imo :cool

what do you do with the moleskin? cut a really small strip and wrap it around the button?
