Tell the guy or girl who has come to fit it that you welded in a new panel as it can be tight when that has been done :wink:

Hi Phil, I'm supplying the 2 windows and rubbers.
They cut and fit both windows for £65.00 + vat. The windows being fitted are a fixed one for the sliding door and an opening one for the panel opposite.
Postponed til thursday as they are a man down today.
They also do camper conversions so I dare say they could supply materials as well. You'll need to ask them though.
