I've taken Chris Dale's great design and slightly modified it to suit our own needs.
Firstly, the 20mm black conduit pipe x 2metres long is available at Screw Fix and is only £1.02 incl vat per length (page 350 in their current catalogue).
Because I didn't like the way the short lengths of pipe sit on the sloping front windows of our older van I decided to use one length of pipe to span both handles. Because our van only has two handles on the back window as well, I was able to do the same job there. It appears to work a treat.
As in Chris' design, slip the end with the whistle hole over the appropriate handle before pulling the slotted hole at the other end of the pipe over the second window handle. I then made the clip from an 80mm length of the same pipe to clip over the slot (or slide it over).

And before any of you start, I must revisit Screwfix to buy a small file to de-burr the ends of the pipes. While I'm there I must ask them where they got the glue they use to stick their bar code labels on their products. It's the bl***dy best glue I've even seen

It looks great Roger well done., however after my van locked itself with the keys inside I will be holding off for a while 
. In fact I have secreted my window opening device so that it's accessible for next time....
When I go on holiday I like to pop my top!

A reminder of how easy it can be to break in through the windows without a secure devise fitted.
..........and an alternative idea for an home made devise

Quote: Tomored wrote in post Window Security Mk2Drill small hole in window catch, insert small split pin,
Attach nylon thread to split pin hole, drill small hole in handle to keep split pin safe. By making the hole in the handle slightly bigger you could store the pin with the thread when you want to open the window.
Further idea for window security posted to years ago . This is my security method .
