Re: swinging front windows As for the holders you already have, I assume you mean the wire clips which fold out? One of the ones on our car has always worked perfectly, and one was always a bit rubbish. I found it was improved hugely by bending the V shaped bit which hooks onto the window inwards very slightly, so it's pointing back towards the car a bit more, if that makes any sense?

Re: swinging front windows Those wire holders are crappy for a van. Where the last guy used them on mine there are dents ands crapes when the doors are opened where they hit the bits that stick out on the rear.
Annoying, would be interested in those rubber ones though but the facebook link didn't work for me.

Re: swinging front windows Yeah, Luke one of these holders works properly, the other doesn't, although they seem to be perfectly manufactured. I'll follow all these tips, expecting that at least one works...  Thanks
