Title: Looking for 3rd door right side strut support bracket for glass
Post by: Bobccw1 on October 05, 2019, 09:32:44 AM

I have a broken most of strut support bracket gone on right side. The glass

Are you wanting the body bracket or the one that mounts on the hatch?
Put a wanted ad in the classifieds here, someone should have it.
Welcome to the club.

You will find there is almost no reproduction parts for these cars.
So used is pretty much it.
Don't know if you have seen this thread, but it might be worth giving the guy a call.

Go to Profile, then actions, then paid subscriptions. There should be a link there, if my brain is not totally worthless.
