Re: Got my 1piece windows
I was thinking of doing the same thing to my son's '83. Where can I find a kit like that?

Re: Got my 1 piece windows
I wish they had them for full removable tops.
Oh well maybe someday.

Re: Got my 1 piece windows
Scrapped all the old window regulators, ordered new window regulators from Summit /Electric-life bolt in unit mounted all the hardware in about 10 minutes. Then started to dig in to the window kit that took about 1 hour to get all the brackets aligned and installed properly. Will provide more details later have a ton more pics. Door number 2 should be quicker and will take step by step pics.

Re: Got my 1 piece windows
when installing did you have to do any cutting to the doors or anything serious to make them fit?

Re: Got my 1 piece windows
Looking smooth, EJ...
Let us know how the new window regulators work as well. Any faster than the original, especially with the one-piece. Quote:
