B190 Enthusiasts

Well, this is a bummer. The shop that was doing a little work on our B190 broke the upper window when driving it out of their garage. They are going to get it fixed but are having a hard time finding a new window.

Are they still made?

Suggestions?

thanks.

Alaskan has a post from 2010 with all the information you need under campers/exterior/save your upper front windshield. I've cut and pasted the pertinent info but the original post has some good pics.

It was very very easy to install...took me about an hour

Purchased one from Airstream 10/2007 Edit: $269.00 plus UPS Ground shipping at $52.98 and there was a $35 charge for the wood box it came....

Update 1/22/2010 the current retail price on that glass is now $495.00

Looking at my notes, I called Airstream Parts (937-596-6111 ext #7401)..they asked for the last 4 numbers in the Airstream Serial number from the rig, which really didn't matter as all these front windows were the same in the B190's

After telling me it was available they directed to a dealer (Great American RV, contact Roy in Parts 888-926-2626) telling me that after purchasing the window it would ship direct to me from Airstream in Jackson Center, Ohio

Great American took the order, charged my card and the glass was drop-shipped directly to me from Airstream within a couple weeks

Looking at the Packing Sheet:

Item Number: 195329-167 (front window)
Description: Window, front-bedroom-190 M. H.

I also ordered the thick vinyl Airstream logo that you'll see in the lower RH corner:

Item Number: 195329-308 (airstream laser-cut decal) ($30.00)
Description: 5.593375 Bottom Laser Rocker

Might be able to very carefully remove that with a little heat from either hot water or heat-gun...as its pretty costly





This decal was on the glass....I suspect this is the company thats actually manufacturers the window for Airstream...

Dang, Cliff, you're the Man!

Thanks

Is it just the glass, or did they damage the fiberglass as well?

I assume they drove into something too low. It's hard to imaging them damaging the glass that way with absolutely no damage to anything else.

I thought the same thing but doesn't look like the fiber glass was damaged. I think I found a glass for it so we'll know for sure soon. Although, I'm leaving for a month in Yosemite next Friday, I don't know if it will get fixed before I leave.

Airstream should still have them in stock....they have a compound-curve so a flat glass/plastic will not work.

Let us know how that works out... !

An Airstream dealer in Southern California answered my post on the B190 Airstream forum. He seemed pretty confident he could take care of me. I gave him the mechanic shop's phone number and he said he'd call them today. I was fairly busy and didn't call the mechanic to hear if it worked out. I'll call tomorrow.

Andy from Inland RV Supply called the shop and set it all up yesterday. The window was $700 including the shipping and gaskets.

Yeah, I'm glad I don't have to pay for it.

If you have the raised "Airstream" letters on that upper glass....you can carefully remove them the an extended razor-knife and glue them back onto your new front glass

Great info! Thanks!!

That glass is now $588.19 !!

I haven't seen the decal on the front window. I don't have one. Does anyone have a picture?
