    The passenger side sleeper glass has the outer layer busted on my truck....
    The dealer wants close to $600 bucks for the new glass, finding one in the junkyard is doubtful...
    Glass shop can't cut the glass because the cab slopes inward toward the roof?
    Any of you guys been down this road? Sure would like to find one alot cheaper....thanks

    I have never even taken the shade off my sleeper window. I would prefer a access door rather than a window. At least the ones on the FTL open up, these do nothing.

    If the truck was ordered without the window it would have been a door just like your drivers side. I have two two bunk doors on my 62'' flattop and a rear wall window.
