sliding window options
I think the windows i have in the 110 are standard LR fitment from new. (rivets hidden by a filler strip)
They rattled and they leaked. Replaced the rubbers etc with Garrison Outfitters ones and that cured the rattle. Despite trying to stop water leaks (new middle upright seal) and sealant the Censored still leak from where the windows meet in the middle.
I would still like sliding ones and dont want to re-cut the opening to fit other styles.
So, What are the options on makes of windows to replace these?

LR ones?
Masai ones?
Others? 1999 Defender TD5 110

Rough Parts do a gullwing window... but it's not cheap!

Ok Frontrunner are the ones I have seen and asked about previously. I wanted to know if they were a straight swap for the standard LR fitted sliding windows. I am told they are and that they utilise the same rivet holes as well.

As far as I am concerned it is so my dogs cannot see out as easily (collies and they love to stare) but they would also allow for ventilation on hot days and I love the idea of having a storage box behind to store equipment.
