I'm stoked, I just started down a path for a big 2023. I am working with a supplier on getting these universal lock strips to start supplying with the bubble windows. R&D is still in the early phases, but we are looking good. I am working with an artist friend of mine to come up with some cartoon drawings of a van, bubble windows, and a guy installing them to add onto the instructions sheet I am developing. This is going to be a great kit when finished.

Totally, there are very few options for window gaskets for a lot of the vans. I know places like Steele can remake the gaskets but need really good examples. Most are crumbling or people aren't able to get the minimum amount of orders or front the costs. It starts to add up fast.

Yep after I ordered a 25 ft roll to do both my vans pop out windows the co raised the minimum to a 100 ft roll. I guess I got the left overs from another order.

Minimum for this is now 200', however it is $275 plus shipping. Most places want $200 for 100'. I can do 30 pairs of windows with 200'.

Took my van to a car show yesterday and there were 180 vehicles. They gave out trophies for the top 25 and one for best of show. I got one for the top 25. I was happy!
