 There is a special tool and i have it at the shop, im at home and will try to post some pictures when i get there or text me at 651 485 9832 and i can send them via text,,, Im an older for tech and did a ton of tilt columns back in the day , but i had a very very very hard time trying to get them out ,, I was doing a 69 tilt away column and needed to replace the cable, it was caught in the housing and i ended up removing the column and sending to a guy in California that makes cables, he ended up sending me back tthe housing and i reassembled the column from there,,, so just a fyi,,, i have removed alot of the pivot pins but the tilt away column kicked my ass,,,,,,,, Bob Wilson   651 485 9832

Ray,
thank you for the reply,,,,it seems like you stated flat in a area, actually it is about 12 inches in the center of the glass, question,
We took the glass back to the supplier and they tried to remove/trim off the excess and shattered the glass, but they used a  grinder, what grit and did you use water to cool the glass, bob
#11

   Greg, the supplier is aware and they had 4 more in their inventory that matched the ones that came from there shop. We matched all of them to the original glass i have, there all larger than the original one . The original is severely scratched
any one know of another supplier, ECS buys there glass from this place too, so , ECS not going to be a source, Bob   
#12
   I have 2 shelbys in my shop, both are  66  fastback cars in the shop, customer suppled glass for both cars, there from a supplier i have used alot, the cars have original quarter panels and roof panels and the transition panel between the back glass,,,, The problem is the aftermarket glass is about 3/8 inch wider than the original  back glass [located  from a  local mustang guy,,,, The supplier as i said I have used and have a relationship with and they order these back glass 70 pieces at a time,,, no one had a concern reported to them about install concerns, i had my son run the glass back to them as there located here in Minnesota , along with the original and they are agreement with me that the new glass is not the same size,,,,, both cars are very close to the same opening size and flanges,,,,,
   so am I  installing it wrong ?
  Normal i start at the bottom of the glass and pull the cord over the lip, work my way up ,, i have installed probably 25 back glass ,  67 68 69 70 71,,, this is the first 66 glass , so am i doing it wrong,
  during the install ,  if I go up one side to the top and then go over to the other side , The glass and the rubber seal has climbed the flange and is against the quarter panel flange, were the trim clip ,clips into the pin ,,,, i have tryed this about 3 to 4 times and get the same result, any ideas,,,, 
Should i start at the top were the glass is widest and go to the bottom? 
  appericate any help,,,, or recommendations of were to get another piece of glass,,,, Bob

#15

   Thank you Jeff,
Sorry about multiple questions, Yes, Fastback,
   got the details for the park lamps from the concours forum as you recommend, been going back and forth,,, sorry if that is driving you guys crazy,,, lol
Jacks Underlayment   has a place cut our for the standard full size spare  " hold down loop ",,  the space spare spare bracket,  is not cut out . Im to assume that this is folded under or cut off???? since not all cars got a space saver or was this  ordered or made in error,
I cannot remember , But i think the 69 boss 429 were cut at the right trunk drop,,,,,  i have no other experiences with 69 other than boss 429 cars,,,
