Default Capri quater windows onto a 87 gt

I would like to put early-mid 80's capri quarter windows and louvers onto my 87 gt because i like they way they look better, but i was looking at some pics of a tore down capri and there is body metal underneath the louvers, and i was wondering what i would have to do to do this swap, if i can, any help appreciated, thanks

it should bolt right up to the bolt holes that your existing quarter glass is in with you do you to glue the capri window in

You may have to mess with the interior plastics to get it to look right also,but not sure 100% just a thought.

You will have to trim down your trim a little on the inside around the windows. They also are glued in and held in by little tabs so you will need to drill some small holes for these tabs that hold the window up. The rest of it bolts in. I am not sure about the trim that goes around the window itself though. If you don't get that on it will look stupid.
