Window advice

Looking for some input on the addition of windows. E350 with no windows other than rear door in the back. I intend to add a fiberene high top with 2 windows and RB 50 build out. Add windows in the side door, above galley and rear passenger seat or limit the amount of glass? Thanks in advance

Side door windows are, imho, best done by changing out the door(s) to an OEM windowed door. You might also consider installing a CR Laurence FW904RS awning in the slider.

The awning windows (and OEM pop outs) are a great solution as they provide ventilation even when it is raining, something not possible w sliders. Screening can be added to the OEM’s.

Find some pop outs for the rear doors. Add a FW904RS to the driver side. Depending on roof accessories a Maxx Fan w built in rain deflector will help w airflow. Your Fiberine windows will be good in dry weather but you need some draw from lower in the van. Add vent visors to the front doors. This will provide a couple of inches of opening.

CR Laurence has discontinued many of the Non Sorinter/Transit windows. And due to the compound curve of the Econoline /GMC exterior sheet metal the flat universal windows do not work unless they are very narrow.

If you want some help with sourcing at CRL, I might be able to help and save you a bit in the process.
