Re: one piece door glass

Mike Nutt Thank you very much for posting this info. This kit has been very long in coming. Captkaos and I had a conversation about this the first time I met him on one of his trips to Houston. I'm pretty sure that was about 6 years ago. Chris maybe your memory is better than mine on what year that was.

My point is this, there is a very good reason that many of us are very skeptical about there ever being such a kit. That reason is because some of us have personally consulted master installers, contacted various glass suppliers, and talked with manufacturers reps, about what it would take to produce the glass for a 73-87 GM truck piece window. We have been ignored, laughed at, and called fools more times than we care to remember.

The biggest hurdle has always been money. We have always been left with the "if you have to ask how much, you can't afford it" feeling from everyone
that "knows" what they are talking about.

We knew it was only a matter of time before some company stepped up and saw that there was enough demand, but until now no one wanted to be that company.

As LOHRTBT noted , everyone wanted one until they saw the price and that includes me. Is it worth $774....? From what I know about the initial cost to put a kit together, I would say yes. Do I think it will be cheaper? Of course some one will copy the kit and the competition will probably force the price down.

With that said, you can choose to respond to this thread in a positive manner, or expect it to get locked like the last two have.

It's your choice guys....

BTW- I suggest we show some appreciation to BROTHERS truck parts for making this happen....
