super cab vent windows

Hello all,
Does anyone know an easy way to remove this pin from the latch on a supercab vent window? Is there a special tool or some secret magic?
It is going for new window tint and unless i can remove the latch they have to splice the tint.






Also, Is there a fix for the loose hinges? they appear to be riveted.

As soon as you start to drive out the drift pin your plastic will crack on the lower finger....

I am hunting for a replacement part before i break the original. I am having zero luck.

Any idea where to find a new latch?

Chris

I have my SC parts truck but the dvrs side latch is already broke (the bottom piece where the drift pin goes).

I have 4 or 5 SC parts trucks in my local JY.....I am sure a few have the pop out window option.

Have you tried the FTE sponsor Blue Oval TP?

I was just getting ready to post. Talked to Rodney (NOS parts) and he sent a pic of what he has the driver in stock. THey look the same to me so I need to check and see if the passenger is truly different.

It may be possible to "flip" them, i'm not sure.
