wanted: opening cab quarter light offside (right hand drive)

[jollatine]

Hi all, I'm looking for a replacement opening quarterlight for my 1971 bay. Its a right hand drive so the window is the offside, drivers side. My one ceased up and won't open any more. I am doing a long drive through France so its needed!

I've got a complete one, I was going to use on my van but haven't got round to it yet. I know it's in good nick. Will dig it out and put a few pix up. I have no idea what they are worth though, so it might be down to price as to whether I want to let it go. Don't see many of them around. Can yours not be fixed?

Can I have a 2nd dib if jollatine passes.

Thanks for getting back. Its just the catch that is stuck. Ideally I would just fix that, yes. Can it be done?

I'd just be soaking it in penetrating oil for a couple of days, NOT WD40, proper penetrating oil and just work it gently. Give that a go, before you start laying out money and removing stuff. It's a bloody time-consuming job removing and refitting quarterlights, not hard, just a pain.

Sorry marcher, didn't mean to ignore you. Will let you know.
