On my '84, they're Hehr out of Michigan. I have their address back in the home. Give me a buzz @ 6148066464 (3 hrs behind FL) if you want the info.

Thanks to everyone who offered help in finding window & windshield for my Barth.
I went to my insurance company, State Farm,
told them of my problem and they took it from there;located the parts,contacted Duncan Systems,Inc.who contacted a local glass dealer,and asked me when I would like to have the installation done.All at NO COST to me.I am happy!

Hi James,

I am glad you found your windshield and especially glad that you had glass coverage.

However, for others who do not have glass coverage, if you go to a glass company and they get all of their RV glass through Duncan System, make sure you keep checking, because Duncan's prices are absolutely outrageous especially if you are paying the bill.

I have seen quotes for up wards of $900 per side from Duncan, when just by going down the street and finding a another company which uses another supplier they were able to get their windshield fixed for $300 including labor.

In at least four cases I have been able to find these discounts for folks just by using www.switchboard.com

My local glass company charged $169.00 including installation. When I called them, I gave them the glass stock number instead of telling them it was a Barth. I seemed to make a difference.
