    fixed window fitting on my GQ LWB

    Today i pulled the slide rear side windows out of my patrol it took just 1 hour and 15 minutes including set up locate tools and clean windows ,i use venetian blind cord to pull the rubbers in on the first window i used wd 40 to lube the rubber and rope to help slide the rubber in place but on the second window i used car wash as the wd 40 made the rope to hard to handle ,i picked up the fixed windows on ebay for $250 inc rubbers the actual car frame had a bit of dirt between it and the rubbers but no rust which worked out perfect heres a few photos of the progress i did with the help of my 12 year old son

    my second and third effort for today was to install my modified hyundai v6 air box to my snorkel , followed by fitting the new correct hi beam turn signal switch ,yay now i dont have to turn of the indicator manually (if i remember) evry time i turn right ,Now to do front and rear pads and rotors ,
    All thats left to get is the front shocks and steering stabilizer and i think i am done ,
