I have the same side windows on my Sandman mate. At first I wasn't a fan and had full intentions of finding someone to take it out, but since then it's grown on me. I'm currently in restoration, and am still indecisive whether or not the windows are going to stay. That being said, if you do decide to take them out, please please please search around and find someone who knows how to do it properly! That's the only way my windows are getting filled in! If I don't find anyone with experience, they're staying! :sorrow:
