I started a thread there a year ago, and all those part numbers came from replies there; however, I just got a print out fom my local dealer of what their parts computer shows and it only makes me shake my head at Ford a little more. The illustration shows a 22380 piece that does look like mine and it shows it attached from the top with a single bolt, which is also the only way I can see you would reattach mine, but they have it mounting on top of the door lock rod, so thanks again Ford... What I can't understand is why out of the many hundreds of thousands of cars built with this little part is it so hard to find (of course it has been discontinued by Ford). Anyway, I thought I would post here and see if someone else might know of a source, so...

Me again. I am having to drive the GT daily for the moment while my Jeep is down, so the windows not being able to be lowered is upmost on my mind again. Anyone out there with info on these parts?

Unfortunately, none of the late model resto parts houses have this part (as far as I have been able to determine). This is what I do not understand, how is it I can find no one else seeking these parts? There should be literally thousands of folks needing these. I can't imagine that I have the only Fox body needing these.
