hi
does anyone know (ie. Byron!) if both the larger and smaller side windows were a factory option or was it just one size from the factory? Is there anyway of telling if the windows are factory fitted, dealer fitted or aftermarket?
My HZ side windows are large and have the Pilkington logo. My nephew's WB are the small side windows and have the Pilkington logo ....
cheers frank

I not sure myself but i think the dealer fitted the side windows, a bloke i know had his HX Van from new and had to ask for the side windows. Get a panel beater to brace the van above and below the windows. and get 1 long piece of glass cut to suit, then

Just found out that A09 is the 'fixed side windows' code for a HQ-WB. Just happens that the HQ Sandman broadcast sheet I have states A09 ie factory side windows. Not sure if this is small or large though. |
