fitting popout windows to LX

just fitting windows from my super s wreck to my LX, what a nightmare!!, so I thought I'd post this thread in case anyone else trys it. First of all u need all the following items.

1 popout windows
2 both trims from both sides from SuperS with little hinges and latch covers (circled)
3 rear seat seatbelt bolts (longer with longer spacer)
4 super s window rubbers

now to the fitting part, this is where it gets tricky as the LX doesn't have the threads and holes that the supers has. first of all u will need to purchase some plastic push in plugs (supercheap $3.40 pack 6) u need 8 altogether, the hinge ones just push in to existing square holes, the rear latch ones have to be drilled and filed out square. The trims are the hard ones, I used clear plastic to make templates to transfer the position of the holes from the super s to the LX (4 square holes front trim, under window, 2 square and 1 round for rear trim), this has to be done carefully as u only get 1 shot. I done the rectangle holes by drilling holes at either end and then using a jigsaw to cut the middles out. now my LX accepts popout windows

outside view, please ignore sunburnt paint, soon to be painted

inside view, looks much better with full trim around window and less painting when I do paintjob

just wanted to re-bump this helpful thread incase anyone is interested in doing this, although I did it a bit simpler as I'm not fussed with trim/aesthetics of it on the inside. This meant I didnt need to drill any of the trim holes needed, and also for the rear latch, rather than drilling the holes and filing square I just used self tapping screws.

Thanks again Rudy

p.s. anyone interested in this don't forget to source the window rubbers along with the windows as I first did...

i have the LHS rear Super window, and the upper trim for the LHS and RHS.

Anyone want it? no need for them anymore.

i got both left and right super s window if any one wants them ... no use to me

Bump
