Re: 15 Ford Transit 250

We R&R this it cane out easily, which was nice as there was no replacement glass any where in LA. We also pulled the mirrors and stationary vents so the people we did this for could film the actors in the van without the division bars. The stationary vents are almost as big as the doors. Dumb design.

2015 Ford Transit Install

The 2015 Ford Transit is one big windshield it cuts out very easy , has a lock in cowl similar to a fusion, the windshield I had, came with covers over the rain sensor and the camera. And my van that I was working on had no camera but did have rain sensor, the cover was easily removed and the rain sensor went in like clock work.

2 Man job unless you have a Lil Buddy or some alternate setting tool.

:)

I had to get mine from the dealer... you would think someone would carry this Lee, and yes I agree it is a **** poor design and VERY easy job.

How do you transport this window?

These windshields are extremely easy. With the correct setting equipment or two man it's a breeze. These windshields are only 42 inches tall in the center and it will fit in The back of van Econoline. there is a complete step-by-step demonstration of the new transit on my YouTube video. Go to www.rolladeck.net and follow the link.

Re: 15 Ford Transit 250

Dan is right, they fit right in my Econoline & my Promasters... I don't think i have run across anything that does not fit, some of the hoda's come close to smacking if you put them dead center where the doors latch.
