I am chasing 4 OKA side windows to fit to the extended "bus" body going on my multi cab. Even 2 would be a start.

Lang if you are building a camper body you would be better off fitting proper caravan/motorhome windows that can be opened in inclement weather. 374 had blanking panels in most of the window apertures in the bus body and I fitted hopper style van windows with integral flyscreens to the blanking panels. If you are building your own body then fitting the hopper windows is a breeze and you can fit whatever size and shape you want. There are versions are ADR compliant and are double glazed as well.

You are probably right. I just like the look of the continuity of the same windows and I do also like the "open plan" appearance of the almost full glass sides of the OKA bus.
I will not be shipping OKA windows across Australia and if I can not find some in the SE Qld region I will be going the caravan style as you suggest.

Has anyone removed Oka bus windows?
Do they come out as a whole or does the glass need to be removed first?
I'm in the process of tackling some rust under a couple of windows.
Cheers

they come out as a whole (if same as my XT). I found it easier to remove window with mounting rubber attached. Just push the rubber from the inside and they pop out.

I have removed/swapped around Oka bus windows. Yes, they pop out from the inside but we found it difficult to do unless the rubber is freed/unstuck from the surround (hopefully they haven't been Sikaflexed).
Lubricate the rubber and you should be able to ease/lever them out.
When replacing, wind a loop of nylon cord around the frame to allow the rubber to be pulled through the surround from the inside, similar to this:
