one piece door windows


i am doing a Oval up and want to go to one piece windows in the door, any tips or advise would be appreciated along with any instruction on how to go about it. I have seen the kits for sale at CVW . the regulator looks like a later beetle type to me does any one know if that is what they use
Regards

the first thing I was going to do with My beetle
was one piece windows...

but a local talked Me out of them

He had installed them, then uninstalled them a year later

the only winder assembly recommended for later beetles is the dual lifter from 1968 Beetles..

not sure what they use in the early ones..
maybe they would already have dual lifters??

I don't like them now...

Ive heard nothing but trouble when it comes to one piece windows mate, do a search on the forums there are a few threads I think.

:) I was going to go that way too (loved them in the early 90's) but again, I got talked out of them.

Unless these kits are a redesign and you can speak to people who have installed them....
