Does anyone have a pattern for the glass sliding windows?

Someone broke mine.

Also looking for replacement plastic buttons or something better that holds the latches on.

I know Jim Bounds had the replacement attaching hardware that you need. I'll bet Jim K. also has them. I also have seen them in the flea market at several GMC rallies.

Jim Bounds at the Coop has everything you need for your windows. I just reconditioned all of my living area side windows with materials and instructions from Jim. Next are the cockpit windows. Why mess around reinventing the wheel? Our vendors have all the stuff you need at reasonable prices.
