15 window conversion

[Haysie23]

Hi guys,
I am looking to convert my standard 1961 Kombi to a 15 window. I have searched the threads and can't seem to find a thread. Probably not putting in the right words.
If someone has a link or has completed a 15 window conversion I would be interested to hear from you. The rear corners on my bus were completely knackered and I need to replace the complete corners top to bottom, so this is why I have gone the 15 window conversion.
Cheers

If you type “15 window conversion” into the search, there is a thread 15 pages long

Thanks. Yes saw that thread. I'm looking for the complete rear corner section instal. Not just the window instal.
Where the rear corner panel is taken off the D pillars etc.

Appreciate your help

sounds like a good way to do it, new corners with the windows already pressed are available new.

If you are looking for help/ideas for the corner windows, there are several build pages with 23 window conversions that go over the process. Here are a couple:

Thanks for the links, the last one gave me a bit of an idea, especially with attempting the side windows.
Cheers

I'd take the funds necessary to do the 15 window conversion, divide by 2, and use the money to fix and improve the kombi. A properly restored kombi is worth about the same as a hacked 15 window, if profit is the motive.

If you don't care about resale value, then usability of the kombi is the same as a deluxe.

It's your bus, do as you see fit
