you can buy the clear plastic the window is made of at our local mill end fabric store. its what they use to replace the soft rear windows in convertibles. its available in clear and tinted (was thinking about tinted windows on our topper). you could possibly be able to make a patch with the stuff.

dunno if its in the cards, but you could also see what it costs to replace the window altogether. we have a local custom spa cover place that told me he could replicate my entire canvas and window setup if i ever wanted to.

Conrats on the grey interior. Much better than the baby blue I got.
Thanks, I was happy to see the Grey interior too. Seems like a good deal of the SMB's built around this time, that I have seen at least, were the blue and wood panel interior.

Re: New SMB owner here!

The windows are vinyl and the best (only really) cement to use is vinyl cement. Think pool liner repair kit, waterbed repair kit, etc.

The blue isn't bad at all.. What's really special is the pink or the turqoise!

Yup. I can deal with the blue. At least it's not the pink "Tahitian Sunrise" or whatever they called it. Got the white cabinets too which brightens things up a bit.

Mine came from SMB with a remote on/off switch (only). I found the battery monitor/remote panel on Ebay and added it. A great upgrade IMO and well worth the $100 or so I spent on it.

I dislike the stripes on the outside more than anything on the inside LOL.


Ben - now that I'm looking on my laptop instead of my phone, that van looks very, very clean inside. Nice.
