In this video, I show how to installed a solid sliding door window from Van Windows Direct. This window will allow natural light to enter the van, provide a better vision of my surroundings and help with blind spots at difficult intersections.
What style window would your prefer having and why? Let me know in the comments!
Originally, I wanted a window that vented, but I didn't like that it would obstruct my view, so I changed my plans and did a solid window for a sleek look.
