I already have the sides, but if the back screen can be ordered on its own i will chip in.

Other than that ill cut it out myself.

gus

iTrader: (1)

well i will be after the four sides and a rear


thought there was more peeps after them then this

stuart collins

iTrader: (7)

easyer to cut them yourself

Micky

There a total bast*rd for scratching very easy and look shabby then,plus they make it very easy to break into the car for a scumbag thief,maybe thats why people are'nt interested in them??????Regards Micky

i know demon theives quoted me for a sides and rear and that was 190 plus the dreaded


im sure plastic 4 performance was cheaper but cant remember what the price was

turbotrev

I have a full kit of clear perspex windows fitted to my S2 (every window except the front screen) and both front windows have the sliders in. the kit cost me £225 inc VAT and delivered, from Airdale Race Components 01423 360456.

They were a total bitch to fit too especially the rear screen, and at speed they can be a bit noisy with the wind coming through the sliders.

And as for security I cant see them being any worse than glass to be honest, If a thief wants to get in your car he will, plastic windows or not

I had a call returned from him today (Plastics4performance) but i missed it

If you do speak with him NUTS RuS could you get a price for each window/s also for complete kits.

turbotrev how do the fron windows fix to the car? dont suppose you have or could sort out some pics please?

Versus_Creations

iTrader: (1)

Drill X amount of hole/s through the window and the top of the inner door panel. Then nut n bolt or rivets etc..

A few pics i could find

Whenever we 'nut and bolt' we ONLY ever use plastic nuts and bolts

gambit

these look the nuts and will be a great weight saver. i may be interested. what is the visability like with these fitted and do they look tacky once they have been in a while. The pics look really good, would you put em on an everyday road car???? its not left in car parks or anything but used everyday.

NUTS RuS

iTrader: (35)

I personally wouldnt put them anywhere near an everyday road car no.

They do look tacky after a while IMHO, and will leak like fcuk from day 1, so if your worried about looks and wet carpets then your missing the point

gambit

o.k i guess thats a no for me then . my car is fully striped out (no carpet, rear seats, stereo etc) but it is still used everyday so i will give it a miss. thanks

Red16

Jano_OddKidd those pics were just what i wanted, cheers bud

i want some, they look the bollocks!

Red16

Red16

Stu, forgot to ask last time i pm'd you, where did you buy your polycarb from? and how much was it?

Versus_Creations

iTrader: (1)

I agree. I wouldnt have them on a road car or even a car which will be left out and about due to safty.

red 16

sounds good to me, think i might get the front aswell

Red16

i was thinking the same gus

one thing im thinking about is leaving the car unattended at shows etc, and the lack of locks on the sliders thats the only place i will ever leave my car outdoors while im not there.

gus

iTrader: (1)

you can put a little metal pin on the sliders to stop them from being opened



i see this at central day, didnt know about it before hand

Red16

marvellous

gus

iTrader: (1)

might be a silly question but.......


can you get a heated polycarbonate screen?

Red16

i doubt you'll be able to get a heated poly screen gus

anymore news on the group buy?

gus

iTrader: (1)

i reckon its a group buy of me and you



thought there was alot more interest in them a whike ago on another post

Versus_Creations

iTrader: (1)

White RS1600i

the Escort mk3 / mk4 kit - front windows including sliders, rear windows, rear screen

Sounds good to me, ill take em for that price.

Tim

iTrader: (1)

WOULD IT SAVE ME MUCH TIME AT POD ETC ?
Tim

Red16

think the front screens were 150 quid


not sure if they come pre-drilled or not


about the same as having a good shit in the top notch toilet facilities the pod has :cry

gus

well its gotta save a fair bit of weight


should imagine the whole set of glass would weigh a bit

Versus_Creations

iTrader: (1)

It does save loads of weight, have a look at whats left inside my door above.
