Title: windshield replacement
Post by: ricker on July 06, 2021, 09:58:43 am
I have a 95 U320 driverside windshield big crack. I live in Vancouver WA so a long ways from MOT or FOT.
So where do I go to order windshield?
Next, is there somewhere in Northwest to install it?
I see a lot of people go to Texas to MOT or Foretravel as it seems more professional and they know what to look for.
Just hoping not to travel so far.
I welcome any suggestions
Thank You

I would think any small town glass shop could do a good job on the windshield. You would have to make sure the tint matches and one does not have a tint bar while the other does not. If cracked, check wood at front of dash.  I ordered a right windshield for our Buffalo bus and replaced it myself. Think is was larger than a Foretravel, taller for sure. But it was only $110 delivered. Might be different if it cost $900. Call Satellite or others and ask.

Call RnR RV in Spokane WA or Oregon Motorcoach in Salem OR for recommendations

If you can get an installer to come to your location that would be best case, the longer the job has to setup without moving.
I had both sides done in my driveway through the auspices of my insurance company, who knew ? I did. I explained the potential downside of moving shortly after install and they agreed.

Rick, I'd call your insurance company first, that might be covered.
