Rear door window 1990 Pontiac Le Mans (Opel Kadett E)

I have a 1990 Pontiac Le Mans, which is an Opel Kadett E (I believe) marketed as a Pontiac in New Zealand. The left rear window in the door (behind the wind down window) has been broken by vandals. I have a replacement and have been told that to fit it I need to remove the door trim and the runner for the winding window and can then can access the attachments for the other window. If this is so, does anyone know where I can see an exploded view of the process as a guide?
Thanks

G'Day !

Hello Simon,

Have you tried the Parts Department at your local GM Holden dealer and asked to see the exploded illustration in the LeMans parts book? That should show all the parts and how they fit together.
Sorry, but all my Opels are "old" Cam-In-Head ones - never had a LeMans.

I had to remove the winding mechanism in my FRONT door of a 1990 Pontiac LeMans. I remember I had to drill out 2 or 3 rivets to remove it. I used small nuts and bolts to reattach it. As for the glass...it lays in a horizontal metal channel attached to the winding mechanism, and two screws at opposite ends put pressure at the bottom of the glass. As far as I can remember..to replace the glass all you have to do is remove the door upholstery and untighten those two screws in the channel where the glass goes in.
