Anyone know what thickness of glass setting tape I need to put new vent glass into the frames?

I would just use urethane. The seal is better and it lasts longer.

Does that come I a caulking tube or squeeze tube. I am assuming I can get that at Lowe's or Home Depot?

NO! ....different stuff. You have to get "Primerless Urethane" at the auto parts store. The stuff at Lowe's and Home Depot is different. This stuff is just for mounting auto glass.

Just fill the channel 1/2 way then trim excess after it dries. Any problem centering glass in channel? Thanks for the help. I keep an eye on your impressive fleet.
