Hi all,
Just picked up our 2015 T5.1 (yayyyyyyyy!) and we're debating what to do with windows. It's currently a 'normal' panel van with barn doors so one of the first jobs of the conversion is to decide how many (if any), and where to put windows.
We're thinking definitely one sliding window...
From reading, there appears to be two ways to fit windows (with or without a rubber trim). I have read that a lot of can converters choose to fit without trim in order to tuck carpet in between frame and glass for a neater fit. If a trim is used, how is a neat finish achieved, is the carpet...
Hi all,
After a bit of assistance if possible please.
I’ve brought a Pair of VW T6 LWB Rear Quarter TOTAL BLACK OUT, FAKE Windows for my kombi transporter together with the fitting kit from CamperGlass but I can’t see to see on any of the guides if you are to remove the standard factory rubber...
Just bought a T6 which has deadlocks (see pics) Would like to fit glass which would leave holes under the glass where the deadlocks would have been. What is the best way to ensure there are no leaks?
Hi,
I’m a new member who has recently picked up a 67 plate highline panel van. I have converted a T5 previously so have a little knowledge. I Spent the first week cleaning up and today I had installed (by a local firm) the Transporter HQ sliding windows.
I queried with the fitter if they had...
Where is the best place to buy windows from? There are so many suppliers out there and you clearly get what you pay for, so what are the best suppliers that people have used?
I'm particularity interested in a supplier that can supply rear quarter blanker windows that you can't see through...
Has anybody used Sublime mobile window fitting services, they are based in Tonbridge or can you recommend a company in South London / Kent / Surrey area? Looking to have barn doors and 2 fixed windows installed,
thanks is advance - Jim
miscalculated my bottle of primers and i only have rear barn doors to put windows in
started cutting after realising i used an extra bottle yesterday on the rest of the windows.
looking for primers but not sure what i can use as i can only find normal metal primers and not window primers...
So I reached out to the most local conversion company to get a price for supply and fit of two aftermarket Kombi sliding windows.
They came back with the below. Bear in mind that they are replacing existing windows and not cutting new ones.
"We can replace these windows for aftermarket flush...
Couple of things here ….I want a fixed window in the slidiing door and false ones on the barn doors. I really like the camper glass ones but have just rung and they are no longer just fitting windows☹️
1 …So is there any company you would recommend for fitting them East Mids / South Yorks...
Had a leaky bonded window. Looked into removing it myself but national windscreens will remove and re-bond it for 70 quid. Worth the money I reckon. They also showed me the difference between the kit sealant I used and the product they use. The difference in quality is night and day. I bought my...
Hi guys,
Essentially I just need some peace of mind.. I've installed my camper windows both sides and rears. I cut all four holes out first and then carpet lined inside. However, I carpet lined over both skins and about 10-15mm on the outer skin all the way round the window holes. Installed the...
Hi new member and have already used this forum for loads of resources. I’m just starting my conversion journey.
Has anyone got any recommendations for where I can get rear windows installed in/near Cardiff, tempted to do it myself but don’t want them to fall out halfway down the motorway...
Tiny tiny small leak coming through, it was a huge storm outside and it’s the first time I’ve seen it. The small hole where the sealant didn’t get to must be letting the rain through. Any small sealant I can use from the outside to get behind the glass?
So then, im just about to cut some nice holes in my T6 and having watched loads of videos it seems you can either use a rubber seal on the cut edges or carpet and tuck it in behind the glass from the inside. Whats the best option. Rubber seam looks way easier??
Looking to have my leaky Kombi windows changed out to fixed windows. Not sure where would do this sort of thing in my local area (Perthshire,) so open to any recommendations.
Thanks in advance
