What year is your bus?.......I will look and see if I got spec.s for the front window opening.They will give you all the measurements you will need. If possible provide me with a fax # as it would be easier to send to you (I can load into my comp. but will take longer to do,as i am not 100%sure on how it works yet

)..........

why did assume a bus

doubt if I will have anything that old but will look around for some info.

You can go the long route and pre fit everything inc the w/s would be alot more work but doable

will look into some old books at work and see what I can dig up.
