passenger van windows have latch further forward compared to the westy sliders. Makes fitting westy bug screens "difficult". Westy windows have latch roughly about the middle of the sliding glass.

Also, sliding door window size changed with the change in door latch mechanism in '85, becoming smaller than the driver's side sliding window, both passenger vans and westies.
