What size arctic tern windows did you end up with? Maybe if they are a bit closer to a square shape, then slider can open a bit more. Did you put a different size window into the slider? Looks smaller from here. Also, why didn't you use the same types of windows on the back doors? Since they are double panes, that would be ideal by the bed.
@@unparked three of these: Arctic Tern Window 450x900mm, 44-54mm Wall Thickness One of these: Arctic Tern Window 300x700mm, 44-54mm Wall Thickness Didn’t put the same windows on the back because I stupidly thought I could open them while driving to get additional ventilation. Of course I can, but exhaust comes in. You learn from your mistakes…hopefully!
Good vid, folks. Been trying to delve into some of your library. The wife and I bit the bullet and are waiting on a Promaster to do a build on in anticipation of retiring. Glenn, was there some "colorful vernacular" when you experienced the kick back with the angle grinder and clipped the van? 😵 You guys are obviously midwesterners (seems like anyway). Michigan or Wisconsin maybe? Looking forward to more adventures and Promaster content. Dan n Cheryl in the mitten
There was certainly colorful language. We are originally from Western PA, lived in WA, NC, SC and the past few years before retiring in Albuquerque. If you’re detecting an accent that’s Pittsburgh.
Not only have they jumped big in price im not fan of the push button before you can unlatch; one side feels more natural but the there opposite you feel like you need flip your hand. Yes they also scratch real easily. Glass doesnt and glass is also flat doesnt bulge outward asking to get scratched. Now is glass have better thermal properties probably not but are you going to really notice in small space with heater going anyways and glass window off eBay say 200$ same size from TERN 750$ Also i dont know it the arm attachment is screw to frame or riveted, i have found rivets get sloppy over time
@@FBall-im8ui darn! I didn’t think of watching any videos before installing (even tho I link to them in the description). What a great idea! Thanks for the tip. 👍
Lol ya people WAY over use the word stealth. People know people are in there unless the van is a legitimate econoline with no topper and no windows. That’s it.
Thank you for sharing the window cost information. This gives me a better sense of the value when I look at used vans and compare prices among them.
REALLY glad you mentioned the awning window/sliding door issue! Would probably not have thought of that.
@@jeffreywalker-f1o yeah the problem is that neither did I. Haha.

Good info and great personality
@@joeybenaron6603 thank you so much!
Am searching for your next video on insulation. Would also like to see water system and electrical videos. Thanks!
I’ll put insulation and heat up soon, hopefully next week.
Awesome video, thank you
Thanks for watching!

Thanks that was very helpful 👍
Great video, enjoyed watching, how many miles have you clocked so far, and has the pro master been reasonably reliable overall.
Thanks George, we have 51k on it now and it has been incredibly reliable. I’d buy another.

Had these same windows for 13 years in a trailer. Worth every penny. Id buy them again. Thanks for your comments.
You are supposed to watch installation videos before you install and you would not have had the issue with the rear window, yuk
