    Fitting 911R-style rear quarter windows?

    Has anyone any experience (I know the answer to that...) of fitting 911R-stytle rear quarter windows? If so, how did you go about it? Simply bond them in? If so, what did you use? Or did you make clips/tabs, etc?

    Any advice gratefully received!

    On the 911R they are bonded in. However, it is easier first screw them in to hold them in place, so that there is a uniform gap that is then filled in with silicone sealant. The first two are real 911R's the third is my car

    Thanks, that's a big help – seems this is the way to go, judging from other messages I've had. Wish me luck!

    There is one more choice Keith, you can cut and fit them to the original frames if you want to retain a more stock look...

    I'll stay with the 'frameless' look as it will suit the car better, I think. But if I end up losing a window I may change my mind!
