Hiya - we primarily use our 4wd for fishing - mostly beaches. but have just bought a 2004 nissan navara and realised that the canopy doesnt have sliding widnows for the dogs in the back, fleetline dont make the canopy anymore. Is there anywhere I can take it to get sliding windows or am I gunna have to pay for a new canopy?

Thanks for replies.....

Have tried smith n smith and some others but they just refer me back to the canopy manufacturer - who says that they dont make the canopy and they cant put windows in.

Looked into air vents but the dogs wont get any air if we stop or are in heavy traffic (think Christmas time) the spinny vents take dirty air out of canopy as I understand it.

i have found a place that can put some in but cant give me a price til 22nd and I dont want to have to spend truck loads of $$. You would think there would be an easy solution. :?
In saying that it does look like the windows have opened at some stage it looks to me like the previous owner has got some fibreglass and covered the opening....If i knew how to post pics I would show you what I mean ...
