I saw a post that was hidden in the body of another post reference a door window for RPods. The primary door window that some have been using is available on Amazon and is sold as a RPod door window. The OEM is Vintage Technologies. I believe they are out of S. MI, when I spoke to them they had no idea Amazon was selling their windows. The window they sell which is the same one Amazon sells is the WD06, they sell it for 1/2 the price of Amazon, I have one in my 178 door. They sell a variety of RV windows and other accessories and out very personable, a small company. Piece of advice. Also they are an excellent source for parts for windows and actually helped me for free. ------------- Mike Carter 2015 178 " I had the right to remain silent, I just didn't have the ability." |

They are in fact good folks, very helpful and friendly. They donated several items for the ERU this year, and in years past for the ERU and other rallies.

We used the 14x21 window from Vintage also. They had quick service and gave good instructions. All of the parts were there and it was an easy jjob. The hardest part is getting the nerve to cut a hole in your door. Measure twice, cut once. Vann ------------- Vann & Laura 2015 RPod 179 https://postimg.cc/0zwKrfB9">

Likewise, since I live in Michigan I drove to their facility and purchased the window. The owner spent time with me telling me how he cuts the holes for windows and even showed me the bits he uses in his router. They are very good folks and make custom small campers.
