Subject:Re: Rear Side window slider now at GoWesty

In case you thought you'd seen it all....

TomV of Aspen has the two middle sliding windows in
his Syncro mounted upside-down.  That gives you the
opening at the rear of the window.  Makes for great
ventilation in bed, etc.

He originally did it for his cat--to jump through the
window onto the table, or something.

Of course, if you drive in Pacific NW weather,
you load a lot of water into the window break which
is now backwards....  TomV put some weather-stripping
in there to deal with it, plus Aspen is NOT in the
Pacific NW rain belt.

Works for him--he did both windows, even though the
cat needed only one.

He doesn't read this list, so don't bother jumping all
over him about what a bad idea this is....
