I replaced mine for no reason other than to please a borrowed dog.
My cargo had a standard window on the sliding door. I was climbing up to Chem Peak, 25 celsius outside, heater on full blast to help to cool the engine. It was like a gazillion degree inside the van. Well, let me put it this way. I never knew that Rhodesian Ridgebacks have 3 feet long tongues and can drool a gallon in a minute.
The next day I got a sliding window from the JY and installed it. It took no more than an hour. But again, it was the sliding door.
So if you ever see a white cargo A-Star with a Rhodesian Ridgeback head sticking out the cargo door window you will know that the guy behind the wheel is good ol' DMTR.

Mine got broken also, but by a bear during one of the recent camping trips.
Get a piece of plexiglass (1/8" would do) and cut one to fit. You can use a piece of cardboard for measurement and then cut the plastic with the Dremel tool.

Don't waste a perfectly good van, my friend!

Cliff,

The stain was inside the tent, not on the seat!

I had my three very big sons with me and the four of us wrestled that bear to the ground, slapped its butt several times and made it apologize to us. We even searched it for credit cards to make it pay for the damage, but the poor thing was on public assistance, so we let it go! I know it's a story, but it's the truth.
