  1. Searched high and low on the forum and wasn't able to find much - asking here: Anyone know of where to buy, or have a solution for a heavy duty webbing net type barrier for the 2010-2013 MY transit connect to act as a "removable bulkhead." I've found a company who sells for the 2014-2023 model years but not for gen 1, unless I can bring my van to them and they do a custom job. Not completely out of question, but will take some coordination, planning, and a trip. here is a link to 2014-2023 version of their product.https://raingler.com/products/ford-transit-connect-rear-cargo-area-vertical-barrier-divider Have also found this company: Seems they do all customized for this van, and a little steep pricing wise. https://www.cargocatch.com/Ford-Transit-Connect-Cargo-Net.html
  2. Nice! Looking forward to photos. Hope it goes smoothly. Keep us posted. 3 other windows? Did you only buy one rear door glass or are you also talking about the far rear sides that the passenger "wagon" models had? Shown below. I suspect these are more difficult as I think there is more cutting required. There is no pretty indent in the panel for extents of where to cut on the far back quarter glass, but from the inside you can tell there's two layers of sheet metal. Interesting great add!
  3. I think these vans are unique, especially the Gen 1 connects (2010-2013 in US, 2002-2012 if European) with the stamped recess in the metal, which matches the shape of the window if present. Enough digging in these forums can get you answers on things that aren't quite the subject of each thread - that's how I figured it out. I am working on adding glass to my slider doors which are even easier as it requires no cutting. The "panel" that exists in non-window slider doors (sliders, not back doors) is a fiberglass panel held in with a windshield urethane glue. I plan to remove the fiberglass with a thin wire glue cutter (like glass guys use) and then after cleaning up the residue, pop factory shaped window on with new glue. If anyone here is interested, the NYC taxi version of the Gen 1 connects had a small sliding portion of the glass window in the sliding doors. They were not available on other models, and not available from the factory that made them (custom glass shop in Turkey I believe). Best way to find them is get on car-part.com and search for glass from wrecking yards.
  4. Do you want to install factory glass? You can get window glass cheap. Cut out just around visible area and use a windshield urethane glue to adhere the glass to the back door panel. You can get a roll of the U Shaped rubber to protect cut edge. Find the glass on ebay or even new from amazon. There should be other forums on here of people doing this. https://www.amazon.com/TYG-2010-2013-Transit-Connect-Passenger/dp/B00PT8KZF8
  5. Was addressing bvz2000. I was able to get mine off and repaired with some JB Weld. Put on a new press-nut lock washer but it still doesn't work quite correctly. (armrest wouldn't latch, would just fall down and block the e-brake and shift lever). It at lest doesn't fall all the way down. May look at aftermarket cup holder mount options. Mine is a 1st gen 2011, not 2019. Cheers
  6. OP Did you get this off? Were you fixing it, or would you sell it if you still have it?
  7. Kevin - also interested in this. I know this is an old thread. Would love to hear from you.

  8. Bump on this thread. Also very interested in OPs plan
