Question for you guys.

I’m considering getting a 4104 in pretty decent condition, but it does have a few problems.

The window glass in the door is broken/starred. I believe this is just a flat pane of glass. Do I need to find a replacement, or can a glass shop cut a flat piece of tempered glass to size/shape and install? If they can, how much does this typically cost?

Thanks in advance,

Casper

If it is a two peice window only the aft glass is flat. The front is curved

If single pane it is curved.

I have these in stock

I replaced mine for 40.00 and any automotive glass place can supply it for you, but if the rubber seals that hold them in place are rotten forget it. They need to be custom made and are very expensive. I spent almost 300.00 to rebuild mine and they still looked like crap so I replaced them with Peninsula windows and they looked so good I replaced all the other windows I had.
Here's a link and the prices I paid a little over a year ago.

I had the mold created and had a bunch of the rubbers made.

While many folks "wanted" them some never bothered to pay for them.

The overage is now with LUKE at US Coach , avilable to rebuild these great windows.

"i used a peice of flat plexiglass in mine until i can afford to replace with the pennisula window i really want."

Do you really want NO ventilation while driving?

I just got a complete inspection report with all the things wrong with the bus, so I'm writing a new post with questions.

Thanks for the responses so far.
