Default Quarter Window Help anyone???

I was hoping someone might have a shop manual photo or something to help me figure out how to replace the rollers on the rear quarters. it seems like it should be straight forward, but when i put one roller in place, it totally moves the other side out of alighnment so i don't understand what i am missing. ANY help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks!

It is hard to tell you how to get them back without showing you.

What I did the first time my little orange roller deal broke when I had trouble was took the interior trim off the other side and compared. It was broken when I bought the car and that was one of the first repairs I made.

There is one piece that is sort of boomerang shaped deal. The orange things go on the posts on the end of it and the orange roller deals go up and down in the guides. You really have to watch which end you are putting into which track. It can turn to be backwards / upside down and can be a little confusing. Looking at the other side is the best way to go but can usually figure it out just by playing around with it some.

Thank you, that was very helpful. I got one side fixed, the other side has required more work, the metal piece on the bottom broke off the frame of the car, so i have to get that back together first! I don't know which is more annoying to fix the window regulators, or the headliner.
