Which window channel kit?
The truck I just bought desperately needs a window channel kit for both windows. Is one better then another for example: the one brothers sells, LMC, ECE, The Truck shop in Orange etc...
Please let me know what you guys have experienced. Thank you! |

Re: Which window channel kit?
I was hoping someone would reply already. I wanted to go pick these up today from possibly brothers since there 20 minutes from me.

Re: Which window channel kit?
I have only ever seen these in one brand.I "think" "counterparts".I don't know if anyone else makes them.The vent windows are reportedly a major pain to redo but the rest is just time and patience.

Re: Which window channel kit?
along these same lines, item #20 on this page. I think mine is bad. Does that rivet need to be peaned to stay in place? If so, can you get the old one off the regulator with it still in the door?
