1996 larson 174

[scoville]

I have a 1996 Larson 174 this boat was not manufactured with side windows, I am looking for ideas on how I might put side windows on this boat. It has the top rail that goes almost all the way to the back seat. Would windows from another Larson close to the same size fit?

Google for "doug russel marine", I just saw them selling windshield parts on ebay.

Good luck...

That windshield is similiar to a Glastron MX windsheild. They didn't have the side windows either. You probably would be better off if you went to a local glass person and had him take a look at cuting a tempered glass to fit. To do the job right you will have to fabricate the bottom of the frame somehow. I would sugest finding a donor boat in a salvage yard that has a similar windshild fram and you could take the old frame and cut and mount it inorder to stablize your side windows. Good luck.
