Title: rear windows
Post by: muddyjames on September 14, 2008, 20:23:46

I had a thought today. Oh dear!

Would the rear windows in a 3 door (the ones that pop out one end about 1 inch) fit the windows in a 5 door? It would make life alot easier when leaving the dog or travelling so she could get fresh air.

In short.... no, the rear side windows are a different size from a 3dr to a 5 anyway,.... ask me how i know...!!!

It used to be possible to get grilles that were held in the top of the windowframe by the window - Mitsubishi rally cars ran with them in the rear windows at one point. Not sure if anyone makes one for a Disco but the back door windows are pretty much square, so it should be easy to make some.

I have one of those I bought at a show a few years back. I was thining about the rear windows opening as then there is less noise and also I cant push the wrong button and open the rear window and the grill fall out on the motorway! :lol:

Is there anyway to adapt the rear windows to hinge open?
