Tom's experience matches mine. I have been there and done that. The couch does not have to be removed ( coach #530 ). The panel over the slide window was very tight even after all the fasteners were removed. Once you do this job you will be very careful in the future to not just slam the shade into the up position. You will move it up slowly and when it contacts the latch, push it the rest of the way. This design was not one of Newell's better moments. Russ - I can dig up pictures if you want.
