All the VW shops that advertise in the VWA magazine sell all these parts Jo...

I bought mine from Mick motors....
but everyone sells them....

Send out some emails....

word of advice...
make sure you get them done properly otherwise they LEEEEEEEEEEAK and... after a while the winding mechanism breaks because it has to hold up more glass than usual.

that said, if anyone has a winding mechanism for a drivers side door, let me know :P

pretty much every one piece window thing ive seen never looks good, the seal is never right where the rubber starts to curve upwards where the 1/4 vent window used to be.

You can get wider channels to support the glass too......

Its just my way of saying NNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DONT DO IT !
but each to their own, personally i think quarter windows should be re introduced to the "modern car" some thing you dont see anymore.

They are very handy when you need them. We are actually introducing them to the Helbus.

my neighbours ute, toyota something, has quarterglasses, and it's like a '97 model. i never knew they still used them. i thought it was awesome.

I suppose I will need air con in the summer with my bug so I am keeping the quarter glasses. Also because they will end up costing my around $600!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its a BIG job to fit them properly,,, making them seal etc etc

It usually takes about 8 hours per door if you know what yr doing, or be prepared to pay someone who does.

1/4 windows are much better.
