Window Replacement

I posted several months ago about the break-in on my Challenger coach while it was in storage. The thief broke two windows to gain entry, the front passenger side window and a window on the driver’s side (over the recliners in the living area).

I ordered the two replacement windows through Camping World three months ago. I just found out that one window (the front passenger side) has shipped and is on the way. The second window is back ordered and may be shipped end of March, but who knows really.

The coach isn’t usable with the missing windows and we’re itching to get back on the road. Once I get the front window replaced, I’m thinking I will try to do a temporary fix on the back window until it arrives, so we can use the coach again. Maybe a piece of plexiglass affixed to the outside of the window frame? Any ideas?

If the side window's frame is intact any automotive glass plate can replace the lite in the frame. For frame-less windows try <https://elkrv.com/collections/frameless-windows>
