The sliding glass windows are considered the hallmark of the MkI and MkII Minis. The glass slides inside a felt covered dual channel. This channel works great when in good shape but will deteriorate over the years. This special kit includes upper and lower felt channels, vertical felt separator and a new CHROME window lock rail. Replacing it should be an hour long task that will renew a 'classic' feature of your Mini!

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS for 24A88 Mini front door window channel
This window channel is now supplied without water drain holes. The drain holes can be identified as the larger 6.5mm holes in the chromium plated glazing strip. The smaller holes in the glazing strip are used for fastenings to affix channel and glazing strip to door frame.

TO MAKE DRAIN HOLES IN THE CHANNEL:

1. Use chromium plated glazing strip as template. Mark drain holes on closed face of channel.

2. Using a 3mm drill bit, carefully drill pilot holes through closed face of channel as marked.

3. Using a 5mm drill bit, drill open from side of channel through pilot holes. (This de-burrs pilot holes allowing window glass to slide freely).

New fixing holes may be drilled (using correct size for desired fixing) through open side of channel into glazing strip and appropriate area in door frame.
