I do like these safari windows from the outside.
Wonder why they didn't make that blanked out section on the right a bit smaller? It would make the opening section a lot bigger

Yeah they are good.
Not sure why the opening isn't bigger, but once our curtains are in we don't lose much.
It's all good. I love how everyone gives their hints and tips on here so hi Jack away haha
Looking great

Thanks for this.
I'm still not sure it suits me for the passenger side sliding door.
It will cut into my sea view.

I love it tbh, it suits my needs that perfectly I've just had the other side fitted too.
That said, I've removed the VanShades to finish the interior carpeting and found the drainage channel had almost removed itself. Its not serious by any means as its on the interior side of the window so only likely condensation will drip down there, plus its an easy fix with a bit of sikaflex
Just thought I'd let you know in case its a common issue.

You certainly can drive with safari windows open on the first latch. I've just done it accidentally driving home from work. Had been in the van for lunch and forgot to shut it. Didn't have any rear passenger so can't comment on how much breeze they get in the back.
Definitely good to know thanks
Anyone smacked their head off one yet?
Not yet but nearly haha
Only reason I didn't go for them haha
Think that's the only bad point...they are so worth it tho...maybe a few fairy lights round them of a night if open
I f driving through a town during peak hours might be a bit arkward explaing all decapited cyclist left in ones wake if
Could an inadvertently left full open safari window pose a serious threat to a cyclist or pedestrian? I am not suggesting that people might deliberately drive that closely but it does happen somewhere to some one I am sure.Think that's the only bad point...they are so worth it tho...maybe a few fairy lights round them of a night if open
Would you sleep with them open ..??
On the latched vent position yes. Handles hold it in place and you can tighten the screws on the sliders so it shouldn't be able to get it open from outside.
They shouldn't be open while driving tbh, if they are it'd only be open less than an inch so there shouldn't be any problems like that touchwood
Yes of course they should not be open but it may very well happen to someone and the more that have these windows, then the more likely it will occur to some one. It has already been admitted to and of course they where only partially open which should course little problem. I am merely trying to highlight the risk with a little humour. I do not think that we have a decapitated head emoji on standby.
