RE: [DML] Side Windows

["PJ Grady" <rob@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Andrei,

Sorry but I beg to differ. I had an occasion to raise a Delorean on a lift
with the back windscreen removed and was amazed to see the gap between the
top and bottom of the glass opening close by over a 1/4 inch!
If that doesn't prove it provides structural integrity than what would?

Respectfully,

Robert Grady

Despite what some people say none of the windows on the DeLorean provide any
structural integrity.  Just look how they are mounted in a thick rubberized
bedding.  If any force is applied that stuff would stretch till the glass
makes hard contact with a body part, if the force continues the glass would
just break.

I haven't had my driver side window in for almost 2 months now, it was nice
till I got caught in a light rain sat.  Due to the aerodynamics of the car
you don't get blasted with air as you would think.  With the side in and the
back out you get some hot air from the engine above 50mph, but with both out
a enough comes through the side to push everything out.
