Didn't realise you were from Shropshire too Will, I'm in Shrewsbury - where abouts are you? Feel free to pop round and check out my Peugeot and have a coffee and chat anytime.
Thanks for your email Rich, I will be back up there for three weeks over the Easter period, so I may well take you up your offer then, would be great to see your 205 to give me some ideas, cheers.

I'm about a mile just outside Church Stretton, so not far from Shrewsbury.

Martin has an idea so we can drop the entire window instead of just a hatch and then it goes back up again.Sorry if this sounds unclear but the idea is simple yet effective.Will let you know how it goes.
Ok I get what you mean Paul, but the reason I wanted sliders is because I can't use my window winders with the doors closed cause the roll cage is in the way so I wanted to get rid of the whole winder mechanism to get rid of even more weight. I will probably wait and see how yours looks and works before proceeding.

Quick update.

Was very close to securing a 1.6 this evening. With a minute to go on eBay it was £280, so I went all out and put in £600, convinced I would get it, but no. Someone must have put in a big maximum bid, ended up going for £620. The seller owes me a pint, if I hadn't of bid, he would have only got £280 for it! Gutted!

The search continues, have maybe found something promising though....
