I forgot to post--I did, in fact, repair the old part. Turns out what looked like an aluminum disk intended to fit into a recess was actually a broken-off rivet. I drilled it out, and after trying...

There's a small, round disk at the end of each arm. It fits into a hollow in a little slider that runs in a track under the bottom edge of the glass. As nearly as I can tell, one of the discs became...

This part broke on my 2010 Winn Era (Sprintervan) side window, and the part is no longer available. Without it, the window came right out in my hand. Any info on where I might find the part would be...

BTW, for the table itself, it's something old I found in my basement, which I sanded and refinished. Looks and works way better than the original. The rear shots were taken before I...

I've gotten pretty tired of shifting around a small table in my 2010 Era, and the stock table with pedestal is even worse. I think the Lagun mounting system might be the answer, except that I am at a...

I had about come to that conclusion myself. (Although I don't trust Yelp reviews, because they're prone to being gamed. But still...) Plenty of auto stereo places around here.
