Door Glass.
The 5 mm tempered and tinted door glass forms part of a fully framed electrically operated system. A switchpack installed
in each door casing provides control of lowering and raising of that particular d oor glass with additional 'one-shot' fast
lowering . The driver's door switchpack also provides for independent control of each passenger door glass and total
isolation of all passenger door glass control. Each door glas s is raised and lowered by an electrically operated scissor
mechanism. All door glass can only be operated wh en the ignition switch is in position I or II.
