broken sliding door window

[eugenesantos]

I got a 2003 Eurovan MVC with a broken sliding window on the passenger slider door. The window has a screen. The stationary window is fine. A few questions.

1. Are non-screen windows compatible with my model? I have found sliding windows, but not one with a screen.

2. Can I replace just the window or do I have to replace the whole window unit?

Been looking here on Samba, eBay, and calling junkyards, etc. Any leads are appreciated.

Thanks.

I _believe_ that the only difference between screened and non-screen sliding window glass is the location of the release. I'll measure both tomorrow and confirm. If true then you could get any GLS/MV sliding glass (fairly easy to find) and just epoxy the release back to the correct location.

mvaska, that would be good news. Thanks for looking into it.

Westy windows pane width is different than MV/GLS windows. Take a look at images of westy vs MV/GLS and it will become very obvious to you. I never noticed until ours broke also.

I ended up buying an MV slider since it fits the door, just to block the hole until I could get a westy slider. The overall dimensions are the same. I still have the MV slider if you are interested.....

If you get a complete Westy weekender window assy. I will buy your good stationary pc of glass. I just broke my Weekender stationary pc of glass (drivers side) and have a good sliding pc. Let me know. Thanks!
