That does sound like a good idea! I've seen that style on newer conversion vans with the bay windows... cool idea!

driving down the road today stopped next to a ford aerostar van at the traffic light, they have sliding windows so when rain ever lets up i'll measure mine and go to pull a part and see if they can be adapted they appear to be longer but may be able to cut frame and probably would need the glass cut. if alll that is possible it would be cheaper than having custom made, i think side window at pull a part is about $26. custom made probably several hundred $$.
