78 Volare, how to remove window louvers?

[halfafish]

I'm parting out the car, and have a member that wants the rear window louvers. I don't see any mounting method from either side, does anyone know how to get these off without damaging anything?

Remove the glass from the inside first then remove the louvers.

There are a few metal tabs that wrap around the window opening. As OldIron mentioned, the 1/4 glass has to be removed first. Then you can CAREFULLY straighten the tabs. They aren't attached to the louver very well, just a couple of heat deformed pegs basically and it's easy to accidentally pull them off, if some aren't already that is.

Same thing goes for the Std. window trim on the triangle windows, the clips run into the sealer.

Its easy if you let the car sit out in the hot sun for most the day then do it.
