Vent windows on the front doors
I think I am gonna swap out the non-opening vent windows on my XJ to the swing open type offered in some years.
I dont have A/C and going down the road I only get so much airflow with the little quarter vents in the back open and the main windows down.
I already got some sourced, just need to find out the condition of the felt window guides

Cant wait to get these things in today. (and maybe fix my brakes out back, haha)

Where did you source them and what years were they offered? I have a 95, 2 door and would like to have operating vent windows as well. LA is HOT all the way until September/October.

It sucks cuz I just did this not to long ago and right after I installed them I found out thatnmy snorkel blocks all inflow of air!!! It makes me so mad! But good luck installing them it's easy just take your time to think about what your doing. You have 2 screws at the top and one bolt at the bottom to take out.
Make sure they are all lined up or it will not work right. Good luck
