Anyone have any info on companies making these windows or have you replaced yours?

Gunny, I replaced both of mine. I took them out and
Went to a local glass shop. They made two new windows with a slight tint.
Cost about $250.

So they are not tempered glass? I couldn't find an etch on ours. I was hoping I could drill holes to mount knobs.

Mine are tired and I want to replace them as well. The glass is not an issue as a fellow boater owns a local shop...but I'm struggling with the hardware. Can't find the proper guides and liners...any help?

"Defender Industries" has the guide channel strips which you cut to make your frame for the glass. Make sure you get stainless strips. There are plastic ones out there but they don't last long. Ben
