Does anyone know if the side light windows ((#6) are interchangeable between the 1078 and 1081 air drop? The part numbers are different, but they look the same in the manual and pictures I’ve seen. I need a new one for my 1078.

I need the 1078 one, but I found a nos window for a 1081 that i was hoping would fit.

My glass guy said he can’t cut a new one because there is a slight curve in it. Best he could do is lexan or poly.

I don’t have a gasket, but my glass guy said he could probably reuse the old one.

He just installed my new windshield today.

search in here for "side window" mention that cause I think I recall that for the side window the gasket was reported to be pretty generic.... unlike the windshield. Seem to remember that was the case.. but search to verify

My glass guy had no problem getting the passenger side window out, making a cardboard template, and reinstalling the window again. Seems they’re not too bad to do if you know what you’re doing.
