So my coach must have had a break in at some point because the PO replaced it with cheap plastic and I did not notice before. Looking for the sliding glass with spot for handle on the very rear of the coach drivers side. I have the hardware just need the glass.

Thanks!

Based on the year of your coach, you need the first style glass. This is the one with visible outside joints. It might be easier and faster to get the entire window, instead of swapping out just the glass.
You should also indicate 23 or 26. Windows are different. Too bad earlier this year, I tossed every piece of old style one glass from my coach into the trash. Can only store so many spare parts.

Jim K has quoted me on the glass and I thought I would check here for
A better price. My coach is 74 canyonlands 26 ft.
The earlier frames come apart so I thought just glass would be cheaper....

I have one but may not be the slider. The glass is the same from side to side--just turns 180 degrees when switched from R to L or vice versa. With the stationary glass, you may only need to drill the holes for the latch-not sure about that-check with others. Mine is still the old Gemrecs price of $100 plus shipping.

ALSO, SEE "JACK HOOKS" ad next page for 73 glass. I think they are same as your and my '74. It's the later models- 76 on that have the outside moulding and different latch.

Window change was mid-75. My first 75 GMC Avion had second series style, current 75 GMC Avion had early style. Cut-outs are the same size.
Probably cannot drill new holes in the glass for different latches.
