Need 56 Passenger side vent window frame

Installing the vent window turned into a nightmare. First the upper part of the frame went up into the door channel too far and lodged. Trying to force it down I was able to rotate the glass and clear the door at the top, but the screw the rotates the top of the glass backed out and now is wedged against the little horizontal part that is designed to attach to the vertical side window channel. I tried re-installing the vent window but the upper rotation point on the glass came loose from the frame with the screw protruding up too far to remove the whole vent assembly. Now, I think the only option is to cut the frame into two pieces and remove the parts and acquire a new frame. Any thoughts or anyone have a passenger side vent window frame laying around?

Look at this thread here: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...me-needed.html

@56panelford offered some frames up at that time and may still be able to connect you with one as well as any specific advice on your situation.
