Bob,
Once I removed the two side posts, I disassembled the frame to have the four
pieces chromed (a top and bottom and two sides), as well as the posts. Then
they are reassembled on reverse order.
Regards,
Charlie

Now I'm confused ... it looks like the glass should just slide out of
the inner frame; you're saying I have to remove the whole
kit-and-kaboodle, including the outer frame and frame-to-shroud seal?
