thanks very much bit expensive but look the job thanks very much

 

for that kind of money I would just make my own... buy a sheet of polycarb or acrylic, take out one of the windows and cut to match. Polycarb will cost ~200$ for both side windows. The front/rear windows are much more difficult to make due to their bends and unless you have experiance with working with polycarb then I would stay away from those.

yeah i have done that on a type r civic i had but as ya now they have framed doors and cud just fix the window in with screws but bit harder to work out what to do on the S so if anyone has ideas or even better pics of what ya have done because the glass and regs are way to heavy

 

I guess you ll nee to build a little frame around

 

what's the point of lightened windows. as you are required to have the window down while on track. just remove the window when you get to track.

 

yeah the frame thing was an idea but dont like adding lbs ya know ah sure il just have to put this brain of mine to use just thought some person cud help me take the lazy way out haha.........BELLWILLIAM i wish tat was the case over here the windows have to be up atleast 3/4's of the way and over here we have something you's rarely get ya know that wet rain the worst kind

 

have you looked at any rulebooks for the series you plan to run in? in NASA time trial in the US, lexan windows cost a significant amount of points, and in redline time attack they automatically move you up to the unlimited class. make sure you're allowed to run them in the class you plan to run before going through the hassle of making them. you might be better off just removing all the tracks/regulators/power window parts and just leaving the glass, then making some aluminum brackets that can hold the window in the all-the-way-up and the 3/4-closed positions.

 

wow, here in SOCAL rarely rains. but if it does rain, we are still required to have the windows down. I've never heard of a series that require window to be 3/4 way up.
