Barry, did you still need help with the glass replacement? I just recently replaced the front drivers side with tempered glass on mine.

Tempered for the sides is appropriate but not for the front windshield. If glass, it should be laminated.

Taylor Made Systems may have the specs in stock.

yup. they make the factory glass. I'd be surprised if they didn't know the exact piece. Maybe talk to GW customer service and see if they can help with the disassembly/reassembly process. they must have had the need to do this once or twice in the plant...

I just want to thank you for your help. I'm looking to replace the middle frame and glass that swings open to bow on a 1998 192 Tournament D/L. Your posts have given me hope.

A thought... Look in the corners of the glass. Usually the manufacture and potentially part number may be listed. You'll know who made the glass at a minimum and have a start point.

Marine Glass Specialties had what I needed for my 01 265 vent window, referred to them by TaylorMade.
