Default Replacement side window needed Mobilvetta

We have a Mobilvetta 170LX Euroyacht 1997. We have just returned from our 5 week trip in Europe and fllowing a somewhat scary experience in Malamedy,Belgium when a crazed druggie attacked the van we now need to replace the side window.
We took it to Carglass in Belgium but as this is not a standard window we have been driving round with plexiglass. Can anyone helpwith where we can get a replacement. I will post something on touring site to warn people re the Camping Aire at malmedy.

Thanks in hopeof any replies to my email address werobson@hotmail.co.uk

Is it a polyplastic window to the conversion area or glass window to the cab area ?

Default replacement window

It is a glass passenger window in cab area. I am going to take it to Lowdhams motor caravans tomorrow to see if they can help. Thanks

If your van is on the Iveco base have you tried contacting Iveco to see if they can supply a new side window?
Or the manufacturer of whichever base vehicle it is built on.

Sorry to hear about your window and the circumstances under which it was broken.

What annoys me a little is that somebody like Autoglass cant replace it for you. They advertise themselves as being the best in the business but when something unusual comes along, its to hard.

A lot like Kwik Fit.

All the best

Jim
