Placement of the rear window looks great, are you leaving it full size or are you going to chop that down? Cant wait to see it stitched in.

I like the size of the stock window but the placement of the frame will put the glass low enough to where the bed may cover part of the bottom. I had centered the original frame but it did not have the dent which is something I would like to keep.
