Some of the windscreen firms cut flat glass to fit as in the past I have used them to replace digger windows, would probably be a cheaper option too

thanks for the suggestion Albert but it's the entire window so I think I better just replace the whole thing :)

Hi,
Could you post a photo as I’ve no idea what they look like. A Class or Campervan or Motorhome body.
It might get people thinking more and give you better advice.

I am slightly unsure from your posts as to wether yo lost the Perspex window or the whole frame including window.
Two options occur to me,

1. If you have an exact match window, perhaps on the other side of the van, especially if it is a U shaped seating area, then these people can make a replacement Perspex window for you. Not used them my self but they are widely talked about as a way of getting an old window replaced although they need an original as a template.

https://eeco-ltd.co.uk/

2. We used to visit a caravan site each year at the same time as an elderly English gent in his Motorhome. His habitation door had been replaced by a upvc door with window and complete frame. It looked a little odd, but was a very functional way of keeping his van on the road. If you are not too fussy about appearances you might investigate this route as windows and frames can be made in all colours and sizes. It would require a little thought on how to secure the frame to the body work but not impossible, especially if it keeps your van on the road for a few years.

There are also a few classic Hymer Facebook pages were sources for older vans might be known of.

Sorry to the OP, I just got it in my head that it was a cab window, anyway it might be worth a look here if you know the size.
HOWEVER if you get a window to suit be sure and get the fitting rail as well as there are several designs.
These guys have hundreds, it’s just finding the right one.
