So I had a colt take out my drop down window... No not just the glass.... THE ENTIRE THING! It's busted all to holy hell! There is no screwing that thing back on! Anyways, I am having troubles finding any drop down windows for sale period!! So me having to find one for my silverlite trailer seems impossible!! Silverlite ran out of business a while ago! I'm sure I could find something to work but I need some help on where I need to go for this! Should I just contact another trailer company and just hope they have something that'll work? I don't know what I'm doing! I've never had to repair a trailer before besides fixing dents!

This is what you get for letting the horse look over your shoulder as you use drop down windows on your computer... Any glass company worth it's salt can fix this.. If not, try an RV dealer. They will know someone that can fix it.

Kind of a long shot with a horse trailer but you can call some wrecking yards and see if they have that brand of trailer that you can get the drop down door off of.

I had one break at the latch year ago in a Elite.... and the only way to fix was to replace the whole window..... if I remember right the window alone was around $350, but it's been years ago so I might not have the cost right. But I do remember almost fainting when they told me the cost.

Jowza!!! I bet that one hurt..... holy moly...
Our Bloomer had a broken dropdown window, and a little while back I had it at their shop for an unrelated repair. So we asked them if they had a new window laying around they might as well replace it while the trailer was there.... The entire window (including installation) cost me a whopping $39..... Op, I hope you can find one for your trailer....
