145RB front window

The front window on the 145RB is solid cannot be opened. This is the big window above the tongue. Does anyone know where to get a replacement one that can be opened. Or is one even available? Would love to have increased air flow in front of camper.

I have the same window on my 195RB. I would love some ventilation from that window because we never open the drapes or take out the reflective bubble wrap. It is a waste of money and a poor design.

Mine leaked around the corners and I have had to go over the edges with Quad seal twice. Hope this seals it as tired of finding the bed head wet driving through rain ( the only time it leaked ).

It would be really nice if you can find a reasonably priced replacement working window!

Good Luck!

I also owned a 145rb with a solid front window. If your solid window leaks, imagine what might happen to a moveable window at 65 mph!

They used to many years have front windows who open (60's to 80's), because of leakage and damage to the interior the quit putting them in. For increased air-flow a little fan above your situation would help.
