VWD Universal Camper Van Split-Awning Window for Full-Size Vans
The VWD Split-Awning Window is a top choice for Camper Van Conversions, offering modern styling and practical ventilation. Whether you're converting a Sprinter, ProMaster, Transit, or another van, this window is an excellent fit thanks to its convenient size and large awning that tilts outwards. The lower glass panel operates as a crank window, tilting like an awning to provide abundant airflow, while also protecting you from rain or snow. It's an ideal solution for those seeking reliable ventilation during all weather conditions, making it popular for conversion vans and camper vans alike.
Should You Purchase a Universal Window?
If you own a Sprinter, ProMaster, or Transit, Direct-Fit Windows are often a better choice than universal windows. Universal windows do not account for body stampings, van curvature, or inner structure, which can lead to installation challenges. While universal windows can technically be installed on any van, they don’t always fit perfectly. The best practice is to install them in a single sheet metal section of the van wall to avoid issues like wall buckling or improper sealing due to curvature differences.
To ensure a smoother installation, attach the window trim ring slowly, securing it a few threads at a time to prevent forcing the window into place. You may also need to replace the original closed-cell foam with larger open-cell foam to better accommodate curvature differences. For added stability, using thin lauan or plywood as a backer plate on the inner wall can help dissipate pressure. Please note, universal windows are installed at your own risk.
