Adding windows

[fullerlee]

Hi
I'm looking at buying an already converted V6.

It's mostly great, but the rear quarter is panels instead of windows, and I don't like the way it looks and also would like the additional light inside that a window would provide.

Is this something that can be done post-conversion? The inside of the panel is carpeted up the wall.

If it's possible then can anyone guess at what price I'd be looking at for supply and fit? I'm in the North West.

Thanks

@AJCConversions are in Glossop and may be able to help. I like to think anything is possible....

Do you have a picture of the inside? as alot of the work involved in this would be on how's its finished internally and what is in the way.

This is the best pic I have of the interior. The passenger side I'd like to be a proper window. The driver's side either left as-is, or a fake window.

The passenger side would be OK. We can make a new ply panel with a window at out. This will then replace the panel that's already there.
We would most probably just have to carpet around the new window edge as we wrap this round the cut.
I've added a picture of one done and also showing how we fold over the carpet externally.
The drivers side doesn't look as straightforward to add a proper window and I would want to see it before I said anymore, but adding a dummy window would be fine.
Window costs are on our website but there would be an additional cost for the extra work and materials.
I hope this helps.

I'd definitely just opt for a dummy window on the drivers side as you have full height cupboards there anyway

Thanks, that helps a lot. Doable and not mega-expensive. I'd want a diesel heater putting in at the same time and I see that on your price list too.

Obviously hard to quote exactly if you have not bought it yet, but yes not too expensive and I can give an exact quote when I see the van.
Feel free to contact me if I can be of further help
