Well, I don't know how things have changed over the last couple of years, but there was a time I had so many of these windows was tripping over them in my garage. I could not give them away. I threw them away. Then I later wanted to try this, adding one to a Vanagon, and every one that I found sellers wanted crazy money for them. I wish Westfalia had kept using the jalousie windows-except when you accidentally hit an open one when walking past a camper, it is quite painful.
