Hey guys, on my 2006 marlin todsy, had someone lean against it too hard and shattered.... glass cleaning is terrible as you can imagine.... imagine my best option is having a window/glass show just custom make one? Let me know if anyone has any thoughts thanks!If the glass is perfectly flat, yes, that's your best option. If it's curved.... it's going to get very expensive.
Those vent windows are tough. You may get lucky and can find a dealer who has one in stock. Otherwise you will have to get one made which will cost you. I have had both scenarios. In my case no local glass place wanted to make a replacement. I ended up using the window from the other side as a template and marine glass specialties made a new window. If you have the hinge you will be better off. If you don’t have the hinge that will be a problem.
Some people have used clear plexiglass as replacements too.

I paid a local glass shop to make one after searching everywhere- as stated not cheap it was around $80. Do not lose the bracket that the glass sits it - they are even tougher to find. FYI the glass on both sides is identical - I brought the good window with me and the shop used it as a template.
