i want to replace the rear side windows on my estate to turn it into a van.
what is the best way to go about this?
the windows, frames & runners are all removed at present so i have a blank canvas.
ps how much of a pig are the window frames to re-fit as i can't see how to get the top clips which are riveted along the top of the rear side window area to fit into the frames.

@ Buxvan:
I'm going to do the same with my CE. Think you will need this:

They are not perfect but it's only visible when a real van is put next to it.
Done some photoshop of what i'm going to do :

Someone in holland who makes them. He needed some for his van and made a mould.
