WTB window part

My window mounting plate(?) is broken in my Z-28. Sorry, don't know the specific part name, but I do have pictures showing exactly which part I need. It's on the driver's side door, back end of the glass.




The first picture shows the location, second picture is a closer look of the part. This picture is of my mom's car so that's why it isn't broken here. If I can just get that plate with the guide that goes in the track, that would be perfect. If anybody has a car they're parting out and has one of these that they'd like to get rid of, I'll be more than happy to take it off your hands. It's time for me to get this car put together and looking good and this is a constantly nagging problem that I would like to resolve. Thanks in advance for your help, Alan.

I'm a little confused. Is it attached directly to the window. I got a spare 4th gen window lying around, I just can't remember if its a passenger or driver's side window.

I know it's got some bolts or something that attach that plate to the window. I didn't get a good look at it, but it seems like there's some nuts on the back side somewhat similar to a wingnut but with three "wings." I didn't try pulling it off because I didn't want to get in too deep without having a replacement on hand.

You dont have to necessiarly, what I did was drilled out the rivets, took the window out and then that track peice, put a new one in and used locking bolts for the window... been working good for six months.
No to go 2 far ot but did you take the track and window out in one piece? If so how? I couldent figure it out

I haven't pulled anything out, I didn't want to jump too far into it that day. I just opened it up to diagnose the problem.

its just less hassle and taking the chance of busting a glass reriviting one on, i have some busted glasses with good tracks if you wnat to do that, taking them out with them together is petty simple, undo all the tracks and arms, pull them up , and tilt out and they com out whenyou get them ina certin spot
