I’m looking for hints and tips on fitting plastics 4 performance front windows to a pair of ABW Fibreglass doors, this is for my 2 door Impreza.
I’ve ordered them up and assume I’ll have to make up some kind of brackets but if anyone has any pics that would be much appreciated
Cheers

Sure i'll have some pics somewhere.
Take two alu tubes (about 8mm OD). Thread the ends - one LH, one RH. Get a set of LH/RD rod ends from McGill (http://www.mcgillmotorsport.com/). Bolt the ens through window (use counter sunk washers etc) and door inner skin. Adjust to tension/position;.
Also fire in a couple of bolts (nut either side to secure) through the inner door skin to push against the base of the window - this pulls the top closer to roof line. _________________ Impreza Race Car, 1200kg, 480bhp - SLS/SMRC

Magic cheers Adam. I’ve also gone for the stiffener plates to help with the windows flexing _________________ MY98 STi Type R |
