Sliding Window - Centre RHS/LHS Opinions Please

[shaven]

Hi All,

Can I get some personal opinions on the Sliding Window Kits, what brands are best etc etc.

It's going into a 71 Deluxe so it may look a little out of place. :?

I like the fresh air so fixed is out... plus my rear LHS/RHS are already fixed.

Any thoughts/comments are appreciated.

Cheers Matty

I've got one of the 'genuine' VW ones from VWH.

I'm pretty pleased with it with the exception of the black plastic 'handle' used to open and close it as this, in my view, spoils the look of the window.

No idea which kit but a quick pic to help.







Hope this helps. Don't think it looks to bad.

I had some fitted last year and i much prefer them. Is easy to get a good breeze blowing through the van in the summer compared to the old Quarterlights. Mine came from Heritage as well.

If you want easy to fit fresh air, sliders, if you want cool but PIA OEM, qrtrs. I was going to fit qrtrs, but having spent ages refurbing, fitting WCM rubbers, they were a PIA to fit, so I went for solid windows - not fussed about fresh air as i have a slider.
Chris at VW Emporium in New Malden had OEM sliders in stock. http://www.volkswagenemporium.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
