Maxi rear side panel fillers?

Post by Nicklouse »

What have people done for the rear side “window” panels where they have fitted glass in the sliding doors but don’t want to fit rear side glass?

Any companies doing black polycarbonate infills?

The choice seems to be.

Option 1 expensive looks the best!
Fit the glass panels but don't cut the metal out. You can't look out, obviously.

Option 2 cheap and looks fine from all but up close.
Stick black gloss vinyl over the recess. Lots of people do that.

Option 3 use the space for some smart graphics.

Option 4 do nothing. Just like the crew vans. looks fine IMO.

Or 5 make a template and make them myself.

Had thought the stickers or black infill. As they are the lightest option.

Glass is out as it is ponitless weight and if they break……

Least cost is leave as is. But where is the fun in that.
