Decided to pull the pass seat and see what it looked like under there. Not to bad actually, every time I read a rust post I got scared.

Here's a pic of the back window behind the pass side back pad. Is there supposed to be something holding the window in besides the sealing tape that is hangin down.

Since he didn't say anything about the window leaking or that it was loose. I wouldn't start removing it unless you need to.
And I to have found the black tape on 914s that I have torn apart were stock untouched. It is there mostly for cosmetic purpose.

He didn't have to say that the window was leaking, you can see the rusty water trail running down the rubber pad. If it ran down the outside of the pad, it's a sure bet that some went down behind also........rust BAAAAAD! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif)
