Mfg. / Part #: AR Lawrence Ford Transit Sliding Window Tags: window/fan
An aftermarket sliding window was installed for room with a view.
Installation is simpler, and one of the first things we did during this project. It’s really not as scary as it looks. Steps:
- Cut the hole the size of the window’s see through section (plus room for sliding)
- Smooth off the raw edges of the cut, prime them and trim with rubber U-channel if desired
- Apply primer then adhesive
- Mount and wait 24 hours to cure
The adhesive product used was SikaFlex P2G Automotive Urethane Adhesive. Note on their website they recommend also using a primer for side windows:
“This Automotive Urethane Adhesive can be used primer-less on Windshields. However; we recommend using a primer on side windows, unlike most windshields side windows are vertical and the primer will make for a quicker bond to the wall of the van for safer installation.”
