I've had a couple of questions about the windows on my 85 Regal so thought I'd post some new info."Motion Windows" is a trade name used by Peninsula Glass of Vancouver,Wa. (rvwindows.com.)
They have three other divisions as well. My windows were purchased in 1999 by the previous owner and are a 'series 2000' window with 'greylite 31' insulated glass. Each window has a pressure equalization button. This series has been replaced by the 'series 1800'. Peninsula manufactures all their windows but only installs them in their Washington plant. For those who are not close to Washington, they recommend that you buy them direct from Peninsula and have them installed by a local installer. They ship to installers all over the U.S. This method of purchase eliminates the mark up of the installer. They do not offer discounts to any installer. They will assist in determining sizes, etc.
I'm attempting to take a few pictures of mine showing the appearance in day and night but have not had much success yet. Suffice it to say that in daytime hours you can't see in but can see out and in night time you can only see in if there is a light on inside and then not very well.
Hope this is usefull. BTW, approx price of a 36 x 28 slider is around $400/$450.

That sounds like what we want. Are they reflective when viewed from the outside and tinted when seen from the inside? Are they coated or is the tint in the glass or what?

Bill, we have them in the bus. We are planning on coming to Q-site for a bus rally around the 18 or so. Would like to see you and Susan if you are going to be at the Barth Rangers GTG this year.

We got them at the factory and have been very happy with them. Got the darkest ones,...thought it might be hard to see out but it is no problem at all, but as stated it is hard to see in unless there is a light on,

Probably will miss the Barth rally. Too much stuff happening. Plan on getting back over to AZ later in the week. How long will you be in Q?

Same cell phone number.
