[DML] Re: Window & Blower Question

["DMC Joe" <dmcjoe@xxxxxxx>]

Harold,

I completely agree with your assessment of deficiencies of the 
original window motors and blower motor circuit protectors. I defense 
of the factory staff at Dunmury I don't agree with the statement that 
the windows were not properly aligned at the factory.

>From my experience window movement alignment on all of the cars was 
excellent. Virtually all window problems were a result of, as you 
mentioned, premature failure of the plastic tube attachment point on 
the factory installed window motors.
