I have to say I actually quite like it

Landrover Defender Privacy Glass Conversion |

not sure I like it with a window in as I think the others look much more cleaner cut. but still if you wanted an opening window then it works too I guess

How would it handle corrugations, & a bit of body twist, do you think? Bob

[dullbird]

I dont reckon the corrugations would be an issue its not like your windows and windscreen fall out...as its probably toughened glass or a glass laminate like they use in windscreens at a guess

The body twist would be interesting though...although would you put it on a rock climber? I dont reckon....

perfect for a tourer or even a city driver to remove blind spots

What a great product! Torsional rigidity is way better than those useless sliding window frames and flimsy panels, priced well too

What about the legality, it looks 'darker than legal'?

[shorty943]

Not as "dark" as a full panel side though.

The web site says it's multilayer bonded so should be tough enough.

I almost bought a set of those.

Panoramic is a bit misleading because you do not gain any extra visibility. Its not much more than a slab of tinted glass glued to the sides, you still have the same window sizes on the inside.

They look good on dark/black deefers, but on lighter paint jobs it looks a bit naff similar to putting an odd colour door on.

Looks a bit posh for my Landy!

I've got factory fitted privacy glass on my Jeep Wrangler. It looks fantastic and I thought it was great when I bought the car. Tailing traffic at night doesn't blind me any more and outsiders can't see possessions in the luggage compartment. However living with it soon taught me to dislike it intensely. Come night time and begin reversing and you cannot see parked cars or pedestrians or anything else through the glass even with street lights. Vision through the privacy glass which is fitted to the back and side windows is zero and stops at the glass. I quickly learnt to pick my parking spots at night so that they were drive forward to exit.
