    I've installed the same window. Mine dripped down the window too. Luckily I had Iso alcohol spray (or wipes) which instantly wipes off the bonding agent. Personally, I'd suggest not to seal over the drainage channels. Firstly, it needs to remain flush to the window. Secondly, these windows in particular have such a small frame/surface area to bond and from experience there is a tendency to put way too much sealant on and it squirts out of the frame - which would also seal over the drainage channels, if too much.

    Wow they look brilliant, I never fitted mine but watched the professional guy fit them in my van till I go home and noticed one side slight different to the other :( so my windows are wonky at the back /; I wish I had that tool when I cut mine out, I made a bit of a mess:( might have to purchase one to tidy it up as it does bug me badly. I’ve covered it up for now but soon I’ll have to make it 100% better :) becks van looking lovely ☺️

      @@BigVanSmallWorld guess it’s part of learning ;) the first one is the wonky one 😂 and the second one is sort of perfect, you notice it worse in the bedroom area inside more than out side, then I used the wrong tool to cut my wall out after i decided to make my bed like yours instead of long ways. Live and learn but will buy that tool and do it better during the winter lol. I was thinking two rear door windows, I got quieted £285 to £360 by some, is that expensive?

    I can't say that I'm not jealous of you folks with the larger vans. I do my travelling in a Chrysler minivan. The biggest irritation is having to jump into the front seat, turn the key on then adjust the window, remove the key and climb back. There's no metal to cut into to insert a sliding window.

    Hi Mel and Becka seen as you like using unistrut i was wondering if you could make ladders out of it for the back of the van, you might need to put a piece across the roof rack to clip into maybe make them foldable so they can fit in the back. Its just an idea I thought about the other day. I can't afford a van to try it ,so I'll just have to keep dreaming

    • @BigVanSmallWorld
      @BigVanSmallWorld  3 года назад

      Sounds like a great idea but I have a telescopic ladder it’s really amazing. Stay positive and focused your dreams can come true I maxed out my credit card to build my van now I’m living in it I’m paying it off rather than paying rent 👍😊👍
