Gull wing windows on a 200

[82SC]

Anyone running these on their 200. Just wanted to get some experience and feed back.

I’m hoping to have rear dual swing outs when I eventually add the LRA tank.

But having to open both swing outs to be able to toss something in the rear seems like an annoying prospect.

Thought maybe the gullwing would solve that annoyance.

Best replacement for rear quarter window glass?

Woke up to find someone broke the rear quarter window and stole my recovery gear. Nice. Recommendations on where to get the window replaced...Safelite, dealer, does it even matter? TIA

Recently added dual swing outs. I had the same thought that they would mostly be a PITA in terms of quick access via the rear window hatch. And I am finding that to be true. In my case, my 200 is no longer a daily driver.

For trail use, I keep my recovery and a few handy tools in a storage box on the swing out. I did this partly because I had a recovery last fall (before my swingouts) where I could not have opened both swing outs to access the gear I needed. The gull wings look like a great idea for quick access.

Similar setup for same reason. I wanted to have recovery gear accessible outside of truck.

Great idea. I leave my recovery gear behind the driver’s seat.
