Has anyone has a glass window in their camper tailgate and then changed to one of these double glazed ones here

If so did it make a lot of difference and was it a worthwhile investment??

I am finding that despite lining my van with thick insulation am still losing lots of heat.

We have one, it's much better. Less condensation in the morning too.

Cheers I hoped that maybe the case was it very hard to fit aand do you use the existing rubber for glass window of do you have to use a different type?

We didn't fit ours but I understand it's really easy. I've got to take ours out to fix a leak. I'll be replacing the seal with one from Gunzl.

That's great, then I think I'll order one this week and hope the van gets a little nicer for cold camping! Good to know it's easy as I've got a little corrosion around window aperture so I can just pop it out again when dealing with that

Plastic coated washing line around the outside of the seal. Offer up the window and pulling the line folds the seal over the lip.... so I believe.

Washing up loquid often recommended as lube, but be careful as many are full of salts.

will do. I may have to have it in and out 4 or 6 times. There is corrosion on the around the lower part of the tailgate window aperture. Until window out won't know extent of it but it is being seen by a bodywork specialist soon so I will just get the window in I think and let the specialist deal with the rust later on!

ordered the grey type from Gunzls last night, they charged an extra £55 on top of website price for shipping.

I read that KY gel can help getting it in.Much better than washing up liquid.

so erm.... back to the rear window.... did you get it in?

Sounds like something else went in

Dont think he's done it yet as he ordered the wrong colour...
