Attach the grab handle to the window and slide the tube under the handle.
I can take a pic tomorrow and post it. Hopefully when we get back from our next trip the 2 new windows will be at the dealership.

I have the BH35 and I do not have the heat problem with the center console, sound like a heat shield could be missing.

I too have the issue with the dinette window when there is a right quartering crosswind while traveling. I have been able to fix it somewhat as the lower base of the two windows are so close that the rub when I try to open them. One the list to have looked at, bur for the moment if I close the front window and then secure the emergency windows it seems to pinch the windows closed enough to keep them from rattling in a light crosswind, but in the strong crosswinds we get out here in Colorado it still rattles a bit.

Love to see all the Magnitudes and Omni's pulling our toys, two pics of UTV's got to love it, I have the Can Am X3 and am looking forward to playing with it while having the pleasure of the coach

Ours overlapped like that before it was replaced, and I did the same to try to "reinforce" it...was waiting for it to break
