As opposed to cock blocking......

[goosehd]

@Giles Thats what happens when you knock on the door when you see the van rocking.

[Giles]

Which in my case would obviously be for less than 3 seconds.......

[endo]

put in the first window, shit part was to prepare the wooden frame, rest was ok

just a really weird moment when you drill the first hole into the car

but in the end all worked fine

[Giles]

Nice

cool Numberplate

The 2nd window was much easier. When you know how to do it ...

I bet Transport for London can't wait to photograph it in September, right @endo?

[endo]

haha @EdH not going there again

[jordanscollected]

Those windows are look really nice @endo. What makes them water and air tight? is there an adhesive or material between the wood frame and the window?

[Mizmazzle]

@endo impressive!!

[endo]

@jordanscollected like most mountings in such a car they are glued not bolted. It's basically the tightening pressure between the outer and inner frames and two different adhesives (the outer with more sealing - Dekaseal 8936 - and the inner with more adhesive properties - Sikaflex 221). Bolt/Screws could loosen due to the vibrations, and there is an amazing variety of glues nowadays.

[Giles]

Oh, Sikaflex. I go through gallons of Sikaflex 291i.....

[Aetas]

Sikaflex is ‘Dichtstoff’. Love it!

[EdH]

I thought it was Viagra for Dichtstoff?

[endo]

Did some minor works on the bus today, quite useful though.

Some stuff to secure the car from the in- and from the outside.

and put some protection over the OBD so the immobiliser can't be overcome easily

[endo]

replace the shitty glove box (one of three) by a decent cup and bottle holder

[endo]

put in wind deflectors

and a blind for the front shield
