Hi Marty
There is a breaker in Arklow direction who advertises on Donedeal, East Coast Campers. A few have said that he can get you the window if you have the demensions and email him a picture etc and may have them in stock.
I went to his premises last week to get one for mine as I thought I would like to check it out first. Premises were empty but a note said to go to another address. It was 430 on a Friday so headed on. I will email him when I get home though.

Before you buy your window in Ireland check out bringing in the window from UK as we could have saved. ourself just 300euros if we had check first . We panicked and rushed to get it done. Also check if your insurance will cover it

My window is cracked , but not leaking so I will be taking my time replacing it. Thanks Veronica. Im not going to spend a fortune on it. I think I should get it for under 80 quid

There is a company who reform your window from the existing for 2-4 hundred quid ridiculous unless going through your insurance.

Thanks everyone,

didn't realise they were that expensive, may look at doing a fibreglass repair on it for now!

hence my comment about the insurance, you may have to pay the first £100 but on a £400 window its a no brainer.

Type caravan breakers on Google.co.uk search engine as the windows are common to both caravans and motorhomes.You can claim on your insurance less your agreed contribution and this will not affect your no claims as it comes under the glass catagory

Be on your guard, if you're buying second hand make sure it's off a motorhome because if it's from a caravan it may not have the internal stamp on it which is absolutely a must to get past the MOT test .

I broke our bathroom window in our last Motorhome, left it open and drove off 🇧🇭

There was a code on it with the manaufacturers name, I went to a dealer and they quoted the code to the manufacturer and they sent out a window. The only thing was, it was £275 :devil:
