Has anyone removed theirs or know of pictures somewhere of a car that has had the window removed?

Interior panel has to come out and it removes from the inside.

Thanks Big Bird. I was wondering more about removing the window all together and inserting a panel that follows the body profile or making some functional brake scoops. Something similar to this:

Between the trim and the Brougham in gold on the window it distracts from the car IMO. Hopefully I can post some pictures of the car we're working with tomorrow.

BTW, I owe you and others many more "thanks" but I just realized the button was available.

Check some of the build threads, several people have removed the opera windows and blanked them in. I'm thinking some of the starsky and hutch clone builds
