I need to measure my side window on the VT to see if it's the same size. I wonder how many they have of these?

I just measured the VT's side window opening and these won't work for us. At least all the CT13 owners should be happy!

I'm curious if someone had a batch manufactured or if these were old Uhaul surplus that just turned up.
anyways, will be excited to get mine in. I've been all over ebay and other online stores trying to find RV, Boat, Horse trailer windows that might fit, glad to finally find something.

A question to CT owners: Do you have the same sliding windows on both sides of the CT or is your driver's side window also an emergency exit window? In our VT, the driver's side window has a special pull for a quick exit in case of fire (or an attack of Africanized bees!). Just wondering as people start ordering these as replacements. Are you doing both sides?

This thread is a great example of the usefulness of this forum. One kind soul finds a great deal on a very hard to find item, shares it here, and many are reaping the benefits. That's the way the world should work.
Thumbs up Tom!

Kevin, the windows themselves are the same. The difference is the mounting weatherstrip on one side has an orange plastic handle to yank out the locking strip on the weather strip. When I did mine, I used that same weatherstrip on both sides, but only installed the handle on the one side.
