Windows

[JWA]

Where are you located, city & state? That might be helpful seeing if I could arrange drop shipping. We'd purchase them through my company but delivered to your address, perhaps a pick up if you're close to one of their distribution points.

I want to install two CRL T-slider windows in my E350 Cargo van on the Driver's side. I am thinking about installing two CRL VW21601L one directly behind the driver in the side panel that this window was made for, and then install the second same CRL VW21601L in the next panel as close to the support beam as I can, as I will only have a little over 44" avail in this panel before I hit my Generator/electrical control cabinet that takes up the last 30" of my van on the driver's side of my extended body cargo van.

Has anyone done this? mounted two VW21601L's in a row? I would like to see picks how two of these VW21601L look mounted one after the other. I wanted two windows that will look good together and are the same size (less that 43" cut out dimension). The CRL VW21601L is the only window that I think fits my space / cut out requirements, but since this window's front edge is shaped to match body panel curve in the panel right behind the driver's seat - just wanted to know how it would look and if anyone has done this.

Thanks
Tom

How are things going with windows? I've got this week to pull the trigger. Going 18x42 sizing and more than likely non-contoured sliders. Any feedback on trim thickness?

Has anyone pulled factory windows out of a junkyard van and installed them? good idea? bad idea?

oem windows from a passenger are not a bolt in design for a cargo at all.

I'd swap the whole door(s).. Much easier.

Was talking about into walls of a cargo/slider. Sounds like a hard no. Thanks for the quick answer, no wonder hadn't seen it done haha!

crl has windows specifically made for most locations in our vans. member 1der is a reseller for their windows and is awesome to work with.

crl's site sucks, but it does have dimensions for most all of their windows. spend some time on their site and you should be able to locate something that will work. installs are pretty straightforward as well.

yeah, almost ordered some crl once, but decided i like my creeper van. was looking at some junkyard vans and it hit me that you could maybe transfer them over. But alas, back to CRL if i ever want windows.
