Re: slide windows for fiberglass top
I don't know if there were any factory sliders, but I thought about building some. The problem is that the bottom and top of the glass aren't parallel. You'd have to have an aluminum frame to make up the difference, about 1" front to back.

![]() IIRC, They were a aftermarket product, but you rarely see any for sale.

Re: slide windows for fiberglass top
I'd like to have a pair too, but the few I've seen have been way too expensive. Someone usually makes a post if they find listing.

Re: slide windows for fiberglass top
Can you use the sliders from the second Gen, from 73 thru 01?
