Front? Or quarter windows?

I managed to lever them with a screwdriver without damaging clips nor bending them...

If your stripping a spare car I'd be keen to buy the rear quarter window clips/screw tho :)

All windows. But the rear ones are the ones l am concerned about. I am also stripping the same on a spare car to sell ill post all parts up. Hey quick one where did you get ur koyo rad and oil cooler from?

Like most of my stuff I buy direct from Japan or via RHDjapan and various forum sponsors when the prices are good...

it's been 5 years worth of collecting bits and pieces..my advice would be worry about chassis preparation and motor before you bother with the parts/minor bits an pieces...

Use a plastic type prying tool. Also examine the workshop manual online to see the fitting process. That way you can workout how they attach and how they should remove easily. Not a part you want to be chasing up later if you can avoid it
