I'm not getting it.

OK now.. step by step.
Tell me where I'm wrong;
  1. Door open.
  2. partially Slide in plexi window into door.
  3. install support on inside resting on door so plexi doesn't fall down into door cavity.
  4. Shut door.
  5. press top edge of window into rubber guides along a-pillar and roof.
  6. Lock door.

Is this it?

Yes. Except before shutting door need to slightly bend window to fit into a-pillar and top seal since window does not slide down prior to closing. To not allow window to be lifted out I will secure window with threaded ***** from inside. This is initial thoughts.

Is this for towing or actually running with plexiglass on track? Mike

For me...
Open trailering and rain protection over track weekends.

So gutted doors or aftermarket? Gutted doors have no clue what to do since it's frameless. Mike
