As the title says guys, how about a PROPER one piece window thread  ??? :) I know there are ALOT of us who want to fit/run them so let here from you guys that have "Been there done that"  ;)

Lets have plenty of pic's and diagrams explaining what needed to be done with different years, seal, lifters etc  - I really have very little info on this subject  :)

Here is one of the first ;) :)

Jim Ratto:
good idea.

Gary Berg's were trick in the Berglar. They even had a bright molding at lower outer sill, that fit contour of stock door. And they didn't rattle, jam, fall down, etc.

Don't forget the cables to replace stock door stops (that have to be removed to do 1 piece glass)

I can't begin to tell you how many 1 piece kits I sold in the 90's.....  :o
they were a fast mover.... big time!

bugnut68:
I will never again run one piece windows.  I have no idea which kit I had in my first '59 Bug, but evidently it was one of the crappiest around, so I'm guessing it was made by EMPI/MR. Bug.  ;D

I prefer the stock vent windows, anyways, and I realize I'm digressing from the thread's topic.  I would be interested to know if someone makes an excellent quality kit, as I have yet to see one.

Diederick/DVK:
it would be great to hear how it was done back in the day.
but to know how it's been done the last few years you should get in touch with either tobi or dirk from DFL.
then there's the black bitch that runs them. or art guiterrez...

just an idea i guess...

Keep it coming guys  :)
