wouldn't you be better tracing round a window and sending them a template? there will be quite a few angles etc to measure if they want dims

If you came round you would have one out of the car to use as a template!  When i get home tonight i will measure it up for you.

Cheers, are you free in the evenings around 5pm. I was thinking of popping round on my way home from work one night next week. I've got the baffles and a plan from Mark for you as well.

Well has the big window template and the small window is just the same as the big window with a bit chopped off. From what I can see the bit chopped off is parallel with the other end so it should be fine (fingers crossed!).

i was thinking that, but are you sure the window isn't a bit taller than the qtr light?

Yeah it is but the guy already has the big window template liek I said. The glass is the same size and shape except for having the end cut off.

but the qtr glass doesn't fit into the window runner like on a big window, thats where i think the size might be a bit different.

happy to be wrong though! at least you will be cutting material off if i'm right, its harder to add material  :grin:

So as per above the main window is the same shape and dimmensions as the big window version until the point the "end" is chopped off. The 1/4 light is not as deep as as you pointed out it only sits in the rubbers.

I hope you are only eating salads, driving without any passengers and most importantly driving naked?!
