My non-GL is a metal dash and bumpers rubber mat tweed upholstery L
model as well. I changed the non-opening wings for opening ones early
on (wife demanded it, due to non-working AC). It's not difficult, but
it's a bit of an ordeal. You have to take the roll-up window glass to
have enough room to wrangle the wing upright into place. Once you
figure out how it goes, it gets easier--- Budget 2 or 3 hours for the
first one, and 45 minutes for the second.

I noticed no significant additional noise from the change, but I got a
pretty good set of window rubbers and reconditioned them excessively
before installation.
