Thanks, only problem with Aluminum warehouse is the £50 delivery on a c.£20 sheet, trying to find somewhere local, got my window today, its spot on and was a great price, check out the site they have a range of size, most competitive I've found.

So after a long hiatus some updates, missed photos for some of the key steps, sorry!!!

few points, the hatch isn't done, I've had one attempt it didn't fit properly, the black plastic was an experiment it failed as was too thin so the adhesive showed through, I like the idea of a color but it also appears to scratch to easy so will be ripping it off and replacing with Aluminum.
