Hey guys well it has come time to order windows, im going all new so i would need new wing windows and side windows or just go one piece from one piece windows about the same price either way , so have any of you used the windows from one piece window products? Here is the pickup there going in just for reference the bed is painted now

I have not used the product you are talking about, but I prefer the 1pc look. Good looking truck, by the way.

Lotta guys here have the one piece windows. Its a personal preference thing. Me I like the wing windows. It helps keep a bit of a classic look even when you go crazy with the modern upgrades that are real popular now.

Very good point. Plus, they're nice on a hot day. Swing them puppies all the way open and really get the air moving through the cab. Just make sure all your receipts are in the glove box and not on the seat or dash.

I like the 2 piece design WAY better.

Rear mains should be one piece, windows should be two.

by the looks of your truck i would go one piece, you have a nice clean look to it unless you plan to put the trim back on then i would go with two piece.

Unless they have redid the products, the one piece windows are sloppy when not either all up or all down.

The power window kits for the two piece windows are real nice though....

I love the split windows, they hold (my opinion of course) lots of character of the classic trucks. I would do power windows on the 2 piece'er
