One piece Windows in a 72 - How do you like them??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

For those of you that have done the one piece window swap into a 67-72...

How much wind noise do you get around them?

Difficulties when installing them?

Any problems after they have been in for a while???

Thanks in advance for your reviews!!!

I haven't done it, but have pondered it. However, the "cool" factor that one-piece windows offer also carry a side effect of making it more difficult to get air moving inside the cab. I like my vent windows, just fine.

Just my opinion, so please don't think I am dissin' your ideas.

I'm thinkin' 'bout it. They look cool. I did it to the Studebaker. I've got Vintage Air in both, so no comfort problems.

I have the kit but have not done anything with them yet. I saw a few posts on here saying that they were somewhat of a hassle, and that a few folks had to make special pieces to make them work correctly.
