Door top studs can be replaced. Cut a hole in the inside of the door top
at the side of the broken stud, this gives access to the stud where it
was originally welded onto the underside of the glass channel.
It is possible to weld in a replacement 7/16" stud. The cheap fix is to
cover the hole wth ducttape, thus access is simpler next time the stud
brreaks!. The more aesthetically pleasing solution is to fit one of the
station wagon trim pieces over the door top. This complicates door top
removal /replacement.
Use anti sieze ccompounfd on the screw threads when you replace the tops
