I am in Orange County calif. I finally found a window shop that can fix my creeping window problem. I had a rear inside glass shatter. Had it replaced for $180. I removed the window and reinstalled.
Now to get the creeps fixed in my glass.

I got mine fixed by a guy near Salem Or when we bought our coach. We went through the dealer to "package" the window fix with the financing. I will get a hold of the dealer and get his information if you want it.

Thanks, I am aware of Dave Root somewhere in Oregon.  I know he travels to various parks and repairs can be made there.  I have been looking for 2 years here in the Orange county calif area just to get a cracked inside window repaired.  I finally found this New View auto glass, now I can take him the 3 windows that are creeping to get repaired.  Later I will post photos of before and after with pricing. Also I am able to remove window and carry to him to save myself diesel $$$$!!

If you're removing the windows yourself, you an save a lot of money by ordering a repair kit from Dave Root in Bend, Oregon.  He sends everything (everything) you need to fix the windows and the proper caulking to use to reinstall them.   The only thing you'll have to buy is a Ryobi battery powered caulking gun.  You can't used a manual caulking gun because of the consistency of the caulking.  We removed our windows one at a time, repaired it, replaced it and went on to the next one.   Just make sure that you have a caulking warmed up to at least room temperature.  The hardest part of this project was removing the windows.  Since you're removing and replacing them yourself, I think you'll save a lot of money doing it yourself.  Just google Dave Root to find his website.

Do those kits come with the window slide channel?

The kit doesn't include window channels.  You can see what comes in the kit by going to http://www.daverootrvglassrepair.com   If you decide to do your windows yourself and you need additional window sealant, you can buy it cheaper online than buying it from the Dave Root website.  Since you're in Southern California, you can also order it online from C R Laurence and will call it.

Ken,

With dual pane (or is that dual pain) windows, the seal between the glass panels can "creep" toward the center of the window. It is ugly and can also allow moisture in which can obstruct vision.
