Replacement glass
Hi,
Love this site!
I have a 1991 Prevost Country Coach. The drivers side (behind the driver) glass has suddenly smoked. Not sure what caused it, but I need a replacement glass. I have had Prevost replace some front glass, but the side glass, I am assuming is a CC product. Where can I get this this glass-rectangular with angled bottom. Thanks in advance. Steve

All glass is Prevost. I believe CC at one time etched a design in the side window glass, but the glass itself was part of the chassis.
If the glass you refer to is part of the sliding glass window assembly the glass in the slider and the fixed portion are double wall, and secured in place using Sika-Flex.
If you cannot get a replacement from Prevost at a cost a little less than the national debt you have several options. It is removeable using a sharp utility knife to cut into the Sika-Flex surrounding it, and then inside the frame where the glass is bonded to the frame. With it removed you can go to a local glass installed and they can separate and clean the existing glass and then reseal it, or they can make a new double pane replacement, or you can opt for a relatively thick single pane glass replacement. All need to be automotive quality so if they brake you get hundred of little pebbles of glass as opposed to knife like large pieces.
We have had owners do all three of your options. Some may wish to elaborate.

Go to rvglassexperts.com
They manufacture many RV windshields and dual pane side windows at there factory in Oregon. Side glass is only installed at 4 locations: fafactory, Dallas area, Indiana, and Lakeland FL
I had the trapazoid side window replaced for under $1000. Call them, ask for the side glass specialist, and provide them the Prevost part #. TheyThey will quote an installed price for you.
They did a great job on my window.
