Abstract

A vehicle door construction which includes a door frame which defines integral longitudinal screw grooves for seating fasteners used to mount cross braces to which the window regulator assembly is mounted. The frame may also include a lower recess to collect debris and an outer channel to allow fasteners mounting a window guide brace to be countersunk for easier mounting of the door frame in the vehicle. The frame may also include a removable insert which defines the window slide channel to allow rapid replacement of a broken window.
