Van windows..

[1st choice restoration]

Thinking about looking at a new van... Like the vans with no windows on the side but in the back. What's everyone's opinion on that?? Could I cover the side windows and back with something or tint the side and back windows. Opinions please
Thanks

are you gonna let chimps back in and out driveways.....
tint is too gangsta.....
they make a wrap that you can see right out......

side windows and rear windows covered with what they call 70 - 30 and print over top

Easy to see out of , not as easy to see into

Run the screen the same color as your van, and put your letters over that

Where can u get that screen/mesh material? Is it specific for van window size

You don't need rear windows for backing up. If you can't do it with the mirrors then get a backup camera.

A side door window is helpful to me when I'm at an intersection with an angle, but I've never had a van without a side window so I'm sure there are ways to cope without one.

Ford makes steel panels that will fit into the side windows, even if you buy a window van, that can be painted to match the van. You cannot tell it is a window van unless you stop and study the lines where the windows are.

I recently saw a van with a similar setup, but the panels had hinges and they could be opened all the way to access whatever was inside the van, I assumed it was a custom job, I wasn't aware the panels could be ordered. Good info!

I thought it was pretty awesome when I first seen it too... A slide-in TM wouldn't have a problem staying cool...

 

[Desk Jockey]

Is that aftermarket Nate?

Mikey was RIGHT....

[Desk Jockey]

Mikey was RIGHT....

and your point would be?

Its not me, Its Larry!

See how slick that was bawb?

As a defensive move ALWAYS accuse someone else. If nothing else deflect some of the attention off of yourself.

I used to use Chevy Astro panel vans with no side windows to look out. You just need to make sure your mirrors are adjusted correctly and learn to use them. My employees all had no problem driving around town with them.

 

[Desk Jockey]

No accidents Barry?

I think it would cause problems when switching lanes or occasionally when pulling out into traffic an not being able to look fully to the right.
We always order them with side windows, when we buy used and they don't have them we have the glass shop cut the panel out and install windows.

I bought the new van with side door and rear door windows. But i think the machine to too big to see out of them. Haha

you have to unfasten seat belt and come up out of the seat to look at angled intersections

spot mirrors that stick to the OEM mirror .

I put mine in the upper inside corner like this

couldn't live without them .
i have them on every vehicle..either large, med or small size (depending on OEM mirror size)

since my new van has windows im getting the internal window cages to keep people from breaking the window and stealing shit. My Ford van already had them installed when i got it. and a steel wall behind each of the front seats so if something happened you don't get hit with a tool.
