Vent Window Pivot Post
Currently installing the door weather strip kit, in the process of removing the vent window from the frame the window pivot post broke away from the frame, I intend removing the glass to determine if I can rivet a replacement in it's place.
My question: searched various Ford part supplier's and although not a particular fan of LMC it appears they are the only supplier who offers the vent window pivot post? Thought I would check to see if a member(s) have experienced with their replacement, seems $20 is kinda pricey??
Comment, Suggestions appreciated!!

Appreciate the information. On a number of occasions I have found what the Ford part supplier has listed in their catalog does not mean they carry the item. Rather than pay for the vent window frame I was hoping to purchase just the pivot post; referring to item #6. I placed the item in the cart but Intend calling them tomorrow to confirm? It has been several years since salvaging the vent window pivot post on my other 65 and seem to recall had a heck of a time figuring out how to get the rivet to anchor the post to the frame, worry about that if able to obtain the part.
Again, I thank you!

Not a problem!!
For info purposes: Spoke with LMC sales person and confirmed they did have the item in-stock. Decided to hold off on purchasing the pivot post, fairly certain I will be able to salvage a spare but I did purchase the other vent window components.
