    Posted: 19 Mar 2019 at 10:56pm
I've searched all over the forum but cannot for the life of me find a post that I know I've seen in the past. I want to add an operable window to my RPod door - does anyone recall seeing a post on this? I recall  that several members have done this, but have had no luck with searching it for it.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.....

Find the window you want, cut the hole, install the window, Measure twice, cut once etc.

Expand the time frame for the search and set it on all topics instead of a specific topic and you'll find lots of info.  It's really pretty easy to do once you pick the window you like.  In one of the posts that'll come up on your search is a good supplier, whose name I don't recall.

Thx - I'll try again with an expanded timeframe; that's what I neglected to do. I'm sure something will come up. I was hoping to find the post(s) with sources/item #s.

Thx again for a helpful reply!!

I have a few pictures of my window. I cut the opening with a jigsaw after drilling a pilot hole. I used the stiffest blade I could find so it would cut without deflecting.
Pretty much was just;
mark the hole,
cut the hole,
apply silicone,
insert window,
screw on interior trim ring,

Will do thx. I am leaning towards an operable window as we are always having to pop our door open when using the stove.
