Due to a freak accident on the motorway yesterday involving a stone smashing my side window I need to replace the glass. I could just replace the one window (oem) or I could replace the lot due to imperfections with camper glass after market job. The question is with it being a caravelle will the sliding window still look oem inside because of the trims as I've read somewhere that it is a smaller viewing hole with the fact they use more black paint/primer. I don't want to replace it if it's a smaller viewing hole or just doesn't look right on the inside. Without seeing one I can't decide and would like other people's experiences who has the after market ones fitted or even better if they have replaced there caravelle window.

No experience but have you considered the pull out flap type as a replacement. Not suitable for on the move opening but seem a good move for camping up. they automatically give protection from the rain when open.
 
Thought about that to honest but chuff nut likes his window open when it's hot instead of the aircon.
Daughters like that, it can damage one hearing so I have read. Years on bikes brum, brum, did no good either at constant high speeds either, nose used to get flattened too back then and the neck muscles built up with the constant wind pressure.
 
I should drive with the windows down constantly then so it can dull down that constant family drone:grin bounce: well if it's not the constant wind it will be the bloody earbuds that sends him deaf. Cuffing youths :rolleyes:
