Window replacement help!

[MarionK]

I am totally coming up empty looking for (two) replacement windows for opening 700x300mm with 5cm radius corners (even square will do!) for wall thickness of 40mm.
Alternative solutions accepted!

I knew I'd missed one off that list, I did find these but I guess the price made them slip my memory! Also possibly still not right for the opening.

I've found the german Italian ones again, linky and might get one as it's only the window, so a lot less financial risk, except afaict it doesn't have the actual fittings, i.e. the hooks and latches and the things that hold it open. I can't find them anywhere either :S

You could try one of the caravan breakers that advertise on ebay

oops even with the editing I forgot to add that I found a place that does nicely shaped (rounded corners) polycarbonate, so that will do very nicely for the front window which I don't care if it doesn't open.

I can't get the order to process on 'camperbros'. I've seemingly made an account, but they didn't ask for the usual information, i.e. address etc. :S I'm wondering if it's even a legit site :?

 

[MarionK]

Argh! So annoying to find something that looks spot on and not be able to actually order it! I've found a couple more, but anything under £300 have too round corners.
Non-opening 'fix' will cost about £75 for old style double glazing. Is it worth an additional £290 for the sake of being able to open it? Ok, so it includes blind and flyscreen, which I don't really need anyway. I don't think so.

Depends on how hot it is I have have all blinds down today with whooshbag door open and lovely inside , blooming hot out ..

 

[MarionK]

Yea, there are times when it would be a good idea, but the skylights all work, and the van is old, so not at all sure it warrants such a large outlay.
I got to wondering why I resent the prices asked for these things, when regular car and van windows are more or less the same kind of prices, but the reason soon came to me: It's because they are so danged flimsy!

Can you go a size bigger and open up the window openings in the van a bit ?

I've thought about that, and the short answer is "I don't know." It would certainly be a faff, as it would mean cutting out the wooden edges. On the front window, I think one of them may actually be a general wall frame piece, not just window edge support. Also not sure if changing the size of them would constitute an alteration of spec. so need to be approved by DVLA. I might as well pay the extra and get Seitz ones. Except that I don't really need them both to open.
I've ordered two polycarbonate sheets to make it roadworthy, and when I get the refund sorted for the wrong size ones, I'll get a Seitz for the side, and have both sheets on the front window to make it double glazed, old style.
