    The windows were traced onto tracing paper then transferred to sheet metal. Once the template was traced out it was cut 1cm bigger all the way round then an air driven rebate tool was used to make a rebate edge all the way round and good to go.

    Got a bit done today, fitted a reverse camera and put the head unit in. Also got the headlining fitted just waiting on some repro sun visors.

    nice idea with the camera! will you put braces in and get the inner sides original looking or are you lining with ply & crushed velvet trim etc?
