Great info Chuck, I've been considering doing this for some time to my 53 but was too afraid I'm mess it up. Was looking at the latches on an S10 last weekend considering cutting them out and seeing if I could make it work on my other project the 47 but was concerned about clearing the window track. Great inspiration and pictures.
