One-Piece/Power windows

Have any of you combined 1 piece windows and a power window kit on your truck? What brands? Any problems?

No experience myself, but check out this thread(and a few others if you do a search using "power window kit").

I have done both. I am happy with the quality of the power windows. I think they are electric life. I got my one piece windows from brothers, but I am not too happy with them. They seem to not be sturdy. I would not get the ones from no limit cause it looks stupid imo. Also check out early classic cause they are selling a one piece window kit. It is probably more expensive than the brother's kit though.

I've also done both power windows and one piece conversion, same brands as low68. I'm happy.

I installed Electric Life ( Summit ) with one-piece windoe kit (Brothers) on my 72. Happy with pw, but not with stability of one-piece kit ..... it's only stable when the when it's rolled up 80% OR rolled down 80 %, otherwise it wobbles.
