single piece cab glass?

Post by wolfsbitz »

Hi, i have been thinking about binning the quarter lights on my van and was wondering if sanyone has modified their van to having single piece cab glass or does anyone know of any kits available, this is the sort of thing i had in mind, just without the little slider:-

I have never seen a van with a single window like that.Or seen any kit for sale.I bet that numberplate really confuses ANPR cameras :)

F919 LXX isn't the vans reg, or the van doesn't exist anymore, is that a very good photoshop picture ?
You won't be able to convert to one piece widows that wind up and down I don't think, which is why that audi loookalike has vents fitted into fixed glass - factory speakers would be in the way as would any electrical wiring for central locking, elect mirrors, and the glass is slightly curved too

Looks like a photoshop job to me.

I do like the look of it though!

very photo shopped pic - this came up the other year along with a couple of variants on it - was admitted at that time that it was a 'dream' van for someone

Not sure the innards of the door would allow for a single window like the pic to be used as there is an air box/pipe/stiffener inside the door that it would foul on hinge side if it were a single piece of glass....
It is by will alone that I set my 'van' in motion!
