Classic VW BuGs How to Install Pop Out Windows for Beetle Type 1 Sedan

Here is a short video on "How to Install" the famous Pop Out Windows for your Vintage VW Beetle. They are a great accessory and add great air flow through the cabin. I feel they are especially necessary for Ragtop Sunroof VWs. They also boost the value of your resto.

one trick i use if someone is afraid of a drill bit going too far and poking the outer body panel, you can slip a piece of fuel line or vacuum line over the bit leaving however much of the bit exposed that you need. and when you get through the hole the rubber acts as a cushion and wont mess up the paint on the side you are drilling from either.

Your videos have been a big help during the process of my build. Now that I'm about to finish it up I was looking at purchasing some pop outs from J bugs and wasn't sure of The quality and fitment. Once again your video has answered a ton of questions for me and I am very thankful.

Chris thanks a bunch for all your hard work on your videos. They are greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much Chris, well presented, my preference is your videos when I have an issue with my 56 & 68 Vee Dubs👍👋

[jayzee]

I have a 64, thank you so much for your video. Since the holes are precut I shouldn't have a hard time installing them myself 👍

My 74 Super Beetle came with these installed, they are fantastic for air flow. That and they kill the helicopter sound I get when I only have the front windows open.

Thanks for recommending the sheet metal screws I was having a fit with the machine screws and I used a long piece of weed eater string to pull the seal out of the jam

[YellowDogWelding]

Been waiting for this video. Worth the wait thank you so much.

Chris, could you please make a video on how to replace the rubber seal for these? I have an old pair, and I need to put the new seals in. I don't want to break my glass.

Hi Chris, do you know if a normal window fits into a popout frame? or a popout window is smaller or bigger than a normal window? thanks in advance

[dannyvw]

Hey Chris, will 1970s pop outs fit on a 67 beetle? Or does the window get a little bigger?

[danielheinz]

Glad I have a 65 Beetle :). Who makes those safari, aka pop out front windshield? hard to find.

[drewsinclair]

If I drill for normal latches but decide to up grade to super latches will I need to drill new latch holes?

[Chris-]

Chris have you ever had any trouble with the aftermarket pop outs? I bought the top of the line and they do not fit my 68 bug. It’s like they are to small and I can see day light with window locked and closed. I tried to unbolt from factory drilled holes and center it up but nothing will get these windows to close up tight.

Now we just got to see how to install safari windshield

What color is that bug you're working on? It's gorgeous...I need to get you to build me a bug in that color. ;)

[richallen]

what do you recommend for noise reduction material?

Hey Chris, Where's the best place to buy these pop out hinges? I recently got some pop out windows at a swap meet but I only have half of the hinges. I can't seem to find any that aren't in a kit.

[Smokeyske]

How do your know where to drill into the window frame to attach the 2 screws and hinge to the window frame?
I don't see any holes drilled on mine to screw the hinge into.
