motoSycho 690 Posted December 11, 2022 So, do XH door windows fit into an XF? Mine are a bit crap, but the XH parts vans are pretty decent looking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mine are a bit crap, but the XH parts vans are pretty decent looking. yep, push out the centre part of the plastic bit holding it to the window lifting rail (i use a phillips screw driver and whack the end of the handle with palm of hand and then look for the center part behind the reinforcing bar of the door.. 1 in 10 go missing in my experience) then the outer part of that clip you push from the other side while holding the glass in the opening or it will just drop into the door hole and scratch on the way down. tilt the glass on a 45 degree down in the front and it will just come out. reversal for refit but you push the center of the clip in from the door trim side with the HANDLE of the screw driver and it will give a THUNK as it clips in. (assuming you got the outer clip in the right spot in the glass hole. good opportunity to slide the baily channel up into the door frame better also. you'll need the window wound about half way down to access those clips. 2 steve mcqueen and motoSycho reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My manual got soaked in all the rain when we lost a corner of the shed. I haven't gotten around to getting a new one yet. But I can film the process when I do it. I have a few week off over Christmas when I will tackle it, and swapping the diffs. 1 deankxf reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

motoSycho 690 Posted December 12, 2022 I have the adapter to mate the metric to the imperial. 1 deankxf reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
