Thankfully I managed to buy some pins off eBay - LR Optional Parts and they came in a few days. Great service 👍. I fitted the catches to the glass, gave the glass a clean, painted the round securing nuts silver to make them look a bit better 😊...

To move on the window installation, I cleaned up the two sliding window catches. They cleaned up quite well, but unfortunately I am missing the two plungers. So if anyone knows where I can get some, let me know! To get this moving I used the ones...
