Subject:      Side Vent window retrofit?

Hello, from the balmy South!


Would be interested to know if there is a retrofit avail. to allow the
front triangular vent windows to open approx. 45 degrees further forward in
order to get air flow?  My 72 Westy has the fully opening windows, which
are sorely missed on the Vanagon.


Was there any reason this feature was discontinued, as well as the rear
seat opening window on the 72?


My 89 Westy (who's PO lived in Germany and was German) has manuals in
German.  One of them shows optional rear side windows (the long bays in
back) that are "safari" style, in that they kick out and swing up. Am going
to check and see what is involved in getting those shipped here!
