Is there a kit to make the front and rear windows on a oval pop outs. I have seen some bugs that have their front and rear windows that are like the buses safari windows. Thanks for any help

Ruben Martinez out in Tijuana has been making these windows for a number of VW guys here in Southern California. This is one of hisSplits shown last weekend

He lives in San Ysidro (near the Mexico/California border) I have his contact info here, but not sure if he wants it posted. I'll contact him & let him know about this thread.

Very cool!
Someone should start producing them...... I don't think anyone does at the moment.
For the '58 and younger model bugs the front safari's are available new, so why not for the model up to '58 with the smaller front window?
