I like the Kenworth window, but $400 ? thats insane! I wonder if my newfound hobby could produce a frame out of sandcast aluminum? I know a glass guy who could cut the glass any shape I want.
I think I will try it! Aaron

Aaron, if you don't need it to open, look at rob48's CabinCar and see how he didit...Lexan, cut to shape and a rubber gasket to install...

I did almost the same on my front windows for now.. They dont open and they were fairly easy to make. And not expensive by any means.

I didn't know that. He's etched his initials into the glass so I assumed that he had made them. Anyways, RW has better pricing.
