Flat side glass

Hi guys I am planning on putting single side flat glass and have tried the advanced search and have found very little on the mods needed to the door . It looks to me as though the best way is to leave the existing window opening in the door and modify the vent opening to make the flat glass fit . Is this the correct way ? Any advice and pics or diagrams would be greatly appreciated . Thanks in advance .

You need the door window sill straightener strips, P/N 3113-4, from MidFifty. Go to the instructions section of their website and you can get the details on installation. If you buy the whole kit you also get the front window felt channels and felts and glass if you want it.

Great thanks . I will check it out was hoping not to have to order glass as shipping and exchange up here makes things very pricey .

Let me know if you need a template for the glass, I can trace one out on paper and mail it to you.

Our US Postal Service changes postal rates so often that it was becoming a PITA to buy new stamps all the time so they started selling "forever" stamps that were good for mailing a first class letter anytime from that date forward. Buy it today for $0.35 and use it next year when the rates are $0.50 without having to pay the difference.
