Im starting to go through the camper now that the snow is melting around it. Im trying to locate a place to get the slides that the window glass and screens rest on. Applied has 76-78 channels but doesnt look like the ones in our rig. Ours are pretty beat up and arent functioning as good as I would like. These are the windows in living area including the rear bed windows. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also any advise on making the screens work a bit more efficiently with keeping mosquitos out would also be great. Ive had the screens redone but it seems like the rubber that is suppose to slide along the glass doesnt work worth a damn. This is in our 75 Palm Beach. Thanks in advance everyone

As far as I know, the window channels are the same for '75 - '78 coaches. The '73 and '74 had different windows. I was given the plastic channel material by a friend who got them from Cinnabar. She had enough left over to do another coach. I think hers was a '76, and the channels fit mine perfectly.

If you have called Jim K. and discussed it with him, then call Jim Bounds at GMC Coop in Orlando. That is where I got mine years ago.
