Gotcha lol never seen it myself but if you go off how the Citroën ax did there's u would need the clip to open it with two clips for the other side and a internal seal that seals perfect when the windows shut and a cover to go around the exposed metal
I think they would look sweet to make a winder system to open the window with lol

The other option is to see if its possible to make the rears into a winder system

It's doable but you'd need new Glass cut or plexiglass but imo it's more work than what it's worth
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

would plexiglass hold the latches strong enough when the window is open

The glass part wouldn't be dear i dont think the seal part of its easy just make one fit off a more door i think the rails would be the hardest part to get some to fit

There is a ridge that the glass bonds too , so the right seal may well fit
