While I'm posting this is another thing that's been bothering me.

We have virtually no circulation in our coach since the windows have no screens and open as awnings. I've only found one source for replacements and they want $450 each. Are there any other options? I'm reasonably handy.

Thanks again, y'all.

Try a regular window company. Some times they will make them up for a whole lot less for screens window would e elsewhere. FWIW

On our 06 we simply found a few sets of old window frames , sans glass.

By slicing them the long way round you end up with a pair of trim rings that fit the window frame perfectly.

Hot glue your favorite screen material to the inside of the screen frame , and mount with a few screws into the bus window frame.

Your old windows are protected from bugs , no matter which section is slid open.

The PO Boy winter option is plastic over the screening , for an extra air barrier.

You ca buy frame pieces and screen at lowes or home depot. and make your own, this way they fit your space, we did in our eagle and they worked fine just put them in the window after you swing it open, Just a thought,..............

I don't know if it is possible, but did some of this model have windows with screens that could be put in place of your current windows? Course, if so, you would need to find a doner coach.
