Thanks Bri for the information and phone number. I just called them and unfortunately they do not carry these kind of windows. That was good thinking and worth a try.<br><br>Cheers<br><br>Nicole

here's a rv salvage in az.&nbsp; don't know if they can help but might try.&nbsp; also when contacting junk yards(salvage yards) make sure you ask if they know were to get the part you are looking for.&nbsp; <a href="http://www.azrvinc.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.azrvinc.com/</a>&nbsp;.&nbsp; highdesertranger

Hi guys,<br><br>Well our first try was a bust. No big deal but I thought I'd share with you and hopefully save someone else&nbsp;from making the same mistake. The window we found was the right size but not the right shape.&nbsp;The measurements from&nbsp;top to bottom and right to left were exactly the same however the angle on the side was off. Our window comes straight down in the front and the one we bought angles towards the back a little, lesson learned. We'll make a template and go by that from now on.<br><br>On the positive side we learned&nbsp;how to take window out which wasn't bad at all. <br>&nbsp;<br>After we realized that&nbsp;it was the wrong window and since it couldn't be returned&nbsp;we decided to take it all&nbsp;apart. We were hoping that maybe&nbsp;the bottom part of the windows were&nbsp;the same but no such luck.&nbsp;<br><br>So the search continues.<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Nicole

Hi guys,<br><br> Just a quick update on finding a replacement window. We went around a fair amount of scrap yards with out any luck. One scrap yard owner offered to contact other places for us with out any luck either. We contacted &nbsp;<a href="http://www.discountvantruck.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">http://www.discountvantruck.com</span></a>&nbsp;but they didn't have the one we needed, the angle was different. They told us that the manufacturer of the window we were&nbsp; looking for&nbsp;might be&nbsp;out of business. We were getting a bit concern, so we started looking around the van for clues as to&nbsp;who made the conversion. We found the info on the driver door. I called the company this morning and good enough they still have the window and we should expect a delivery in about 2 weeks. <br><br>Hope this help someone&nbsp;someday.
