Hi Mickey, you don't say where you are ? - you could try these people - based in Castlewellan - you would need to give them a template of the window - they did a tinted and toughen glass replacement window for my Pilote Galaxy - I was 100% happy with it and it wasn't too expensive. Hope this helps

Also try Lisburn caravan breakers there just outside Moira, its possible that they'll have something.

I had to get a replacement window recently. Twin wall plastic for my Knaus. I ended up buying new from camperbros.com. Some advised against it, but the quality is OK and so far so good. OG replcaements were starting to push beyond €800 and got one quote in excess of 1000! It's for the over cab bunk, a smaller window, and doesn't get much use. Full window kit, hinges, struts, etc delivered for around €230.

You might get lucky with a breaker, but I didn't

Hi Dubbrin

I used camperbros.com several years ago. The first window arrived broken. Seemed to get fairly rough treatment by the courier. Emailed the company, and they sent a new one out no problem. All they asked for was a photo of the damage. Window fitted perfectly and was of good quality.

The quality seems good . All the fixings and trim look like they're made of good stuff and they match the OEM stuff on the van very well. I wasn't able to get the same 'grey' tint though so that window looks darker than the rest. No big deal. It was very well packaged, so well I took note of it as I took it out! I've bought a lot of car and camper stuff through the years and I've no worries about what I got here
