    I'm thinking about getting a window put in the back of my sleeper of my truck I do long haul on my days off espically in the winter, I know a few rig custom shops around town and I know where a whole 63in sleeper with a window that's already in, I'm not going to cut my interior I'll switch it out with the other truck so I won't cut out the original

    Here's pics of my truck

    I would think that any RV shop should beable to help you out with this.

    I have to ask though, why do you want a window back there? Do you like looking at the front of a trailer? I hate windows in a sleeper for the most part, especially when I want to try and sleep. For one they either cause extra heat due to the sun shining in them or they don't seal out the cold in the winter months. That and it makes it easier for someone to bust out the window to get in your truck and remove some of them items that you might find inportant to you.

    His rear view mirror won't work without a window in the back of the sleeper.

    Your truck needs a lot of other things besides an extra window. Maybe a lttile paint and polish would be in order for a start.

    I would finish every modification that I wanted before paint and polish.

    Paint and polish now and then put a window in back there then he is going to be spending the money to paint a polish the 2nd time.
