Join us on an exciting journey as we tackle the ultimate windshield challenge! In this episode of Vangabonders, we dive headfirst into the intricacies of fitting a windshield onto our extensively restored 1973 VW Bus. With a roof swap and nose replacement under our belt, the big question is, will it fit? Discover the ups, downs, and invaluable lessons learned during this nerve-wracking installation process.
But that's not all! Stick around for the second half of the video as we lend a helping hand to our friend "Russ With The Bus" and his 1978 VW Bus. Armed with the wisdom gained from our own windshield adventure, we take you through the steps of a flawless installation to get Russ back on the road with a crystal-clear view.

Grab a caulking cartridge nozzle and put the rope through it then run it along the rubber seal, works a treat ;)

I came here to say that too…
I am very impressed by the work you have done on this bus. Has anyone else mentioned Mallory’s resemblance to Katy Perry?

Happy Birthday.
Loved the content. we did a roof because of the front cargo tray of my riviera had accumulated trash and rusted thru to the door track. To keep the dimensions, we cut plywood squares in to three windows to set the height for the grafted roof. worked good.
Happy birthday!!!!!!🎉
My new windshield is so shiny and clear

You are so shiny and clear
I am in the lead up to a windshield install right now. I had no idea starting on the side was a thing! All the previous glass I've installed is flat glass and I usually start at the top or bottom. This curved bay windshield is a new challenge. Thanks for the tips!

If you’ve installed any glass before you should have an easy time. It really wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Good luck 👍

Из России с любовью!!! Трудящиеся всех стран объединяйтесь!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Ohhh yeah it’s comin like butter now 😂😂😂 nice work
Best way to experiment putting in any window is by using the damaged original first. Now your experienced. First time for everything. Keep up the great work on the restoration of your VW bus
The big 3 0 mate have a great trip happy birthday love the Gordon family x
Excelente Window install!! Happy Birthday 🎉❤!!
Put your window seals in hot water b4 putting them in it will soften the rubber
Kris I sent some pics of my windshield experience 😮
Being in AutoGlass for 15 years. This was painful. I wanted to help so bad. As for your helper, always tap the glass behind the rope. Not in front where the flexing is happening. Nonetheless, awesome job. It’s all about the journey and having the balls to take on stuff on your own. Hope this comment helps the algorithm. Lol.
Nice video!! Love the content. This way I makes me even more determined to work with you, you will definitely create very interesting work! Very much looking forward to our refrigerator could be showed in the latest video!🌞🌞
Happy birthday 🎉🎉 thanks for all the kick ass videos!!!
good job, i installed mine using screwdrivers, it didnt break either, love n peace from Scotland
Always find your video’s entertaining! (And informative!) Nice work 🤙
Awesome. Happy birthday. I need to do this soon. Very helpful.
Great job, love the content :) very fun and creative.
An SOS steel wool/soap pad works great for cleaning an old windshield.

The foggy problem I have with mine is inside the lamination so it can’t be cleaned unfortunately 😞
my bus got hit with a golf ball on the highway, removed the factory windshield and got a fuyao to replace, have heard horror stories about the fitment and possibly needing the glass shaved, hope its a rare problem, praying that after i paint the repaired lip area i worked on that she goes in and doesn't crack!!!!!!
Keep up the great work 🤙
👍👍👍
Hey. Great video. Did you have the glass shipped to you? I saw it in the crate. Where did you source the windshields from? Thanks
Anything
Well might just go remove my windshield, just for maintenance sake.
also what brand windshield is that ? got a model number listed?
👍👍👍😎😎😎

Never use anything except Glycerine on your window rubbers.
That’s not how you install a windshield!😂😂😂
You did it so so wrong 😊
