For what ever reason all or most of the clips that hold the linkage together on both front doors have broken and all the rods are in the bottom of the door.
I have tried to figure out where they all belong but have not been able to figure it out. Some of them appear to be bent in places other than where they should be.
I know that the drivers side window hits the inside door latch linkage when it is rolled up or down.
can anyone out there tell me what other cars will have the same linkage set-up other than a Labaron GTS that is the same as my car and maybe where I can find a diagram of how everything is connected?

The clips are available at auto parts stores, but we do not have pictures of that old of a car. Most of those rods are supposed to be bent so do not straighten them out until they are in place.

Thanks. I was afraid of that. That is the last thing that I have to do to the doors and they will be as good as new.
