HOLY COW what a rare game. I've never even heard of that one.

I guess that part would be called a glass retainer.


NO MORE!!

I recently needed a piece like that.  I went to the hardware store and got a door sweep that is supposed to go on the bottom of the door to keep out drafts.  I had to cut it to the needed length and drill the hole in the right spot but it works and it looks OK after a coat of paint.  You can find aluminum angle iron at hardware stores and such.  I needed a piece sort of like a T not an L.  That is why the door draft stopper worked for mine.

Looked something like this.

The mounting holes were in the CP already.  I drilled hole that would line up with the holes that were in the CP.  I also left the vinyl on to cover some small scratches that were in the area.

You should take a nice pic of it and contribute it to KLOV.  The picture they have there stinks.
