[mkiv] Driver door window removal

[the_queen_is_dead at cox.net]

Thanks!  I've got it all taken care of now and I did get some info  
regarding it from another source. The FSM noted those clips and that  
is what confused me.

Just an FYI, there is actually a screw at both ends of that strip and  
I was unable to loosen the one away from the hinge. Luckily I was  
able to get the other one off and the strip lifted right up like you  
said :-)

Thanks again for the input. I appreciate the effort to help.
