Windshield code

Can someone with a similar coach ( Unihome chassis 102 inches wide) provide the windshield code from the driver's side windshield.  I think it is at the bottom near where the windshields come together in the middle.  It should have the name of the manufacturer and a code.
I am not with my coach at this time and an rv windshield repair shop is trying to track down a replacement windshield from their suppliers.
I already contacted FOT and they could not provide me with the code.  They have the windshield but shipping and crating is more than the cost of the windshield, so hoping to find one closer to the location of the coach if possible.
Thanks,
Kearn

I don't think the code will do you any good. Foretravel windshields are proprietary. Other companies make ones that fit but are not exact. Many stories of problems with 3rd party windshields.

I just had mine replaced last week. I'll see if I can find any codes on them for you in the morning.

Thanks, I'll save it. We've got some "dings" that came with the coach, and we all know, "they will grow!"

Thanks Ken.
When you say the windshields are proprietary, do you mean they can only be sold by Foretravel?

Here is a link that talks about the windshields...

Replacement Windshield

I would talk to Guardian and probably Foretravel about it to see if it still applies.
