Hi guys

The rear sliding window frames are rusted out and the seal is perished; the glass is fine however. What is the cheapest option, sealed or sliding, I'm not too fussed as price is more a concern?
I came across these from '4x4 offorad clinic' which seem the cheapest, however the whole assembly is aftermarket and not compatible. Has anyone used them?

I emailed and was informed the price is for a pair, that is left and right hand side!

Cheers

Hmm - seems to be the exact same advertisement here; I wonder who actually makes these:

not sure if its legal but you want cheap you
could get a sheet of alloy checker plate cut
to size, and painted to right colour, Plenty of
ppl have done that, it will require a new rubber

I would prefer to stick with glass. It seems fixed or sliders it still costs about $200 a side. Is there a cheaper way to go fixed glass?
I have ruled out lift up Perspex diy as I don't want to screw into the frame.
