Title: Good Quality 1pc Window Kits?
Post by: HeliMike on June 11, 2004, 08:45:35 AM

Hey guys and gals.
I'm just wondering if there are any other 1-piece window kits than the \"EMPI\" or Bug-Crap kits out there?
I've already got the glass from the said kit, but I'd like to find some felts and seals that fit properly and do the job right.
Out of the 3 kits I've installed on other cars I've never found a kit that fits quite right and I'd like to get something that is good for \"every day use\".

Any suggestions?

Those seals have never fit properly, from the 10 years i had working at Cal Imports from what i saw and used , buy the snap in seals and modify the end where it has to bend up near the front by taking small pizza cuts into the seal so it bends easier and glue that portion on to the car. It works but there is no better style of seal that im familar with

Yeah been there done that.
Still looked like ass though no matter how much I tried.
Well I guess I'll have to use the factory windows and vents.
Thanks for the reply!
