We have a 2012 Primetime Tracer 2800rld, which we love. But what we would change is the entry door at the rear of the tt. It has two doors but we would change the one by the rear living area to a door with glass you can see thru. The surveyor sv 303 has such a door. It has clear glass almost the full lenght of the door with an attached curtain that can be opened to see thru. Has anyone seen a replacement door with see thru glass? Thanks Bob

Any glass installation company should be able to replace it without your having to replace the entire door. Adding a curtin should be the easy part.

We saw a 5th wheel and a TT at a RV trade show that had door window that slid up and down leaving a screen...that was cool.

I replaced the obscure glass in my door with smoked Lexan. Had the Lexan cut at a local glass shop and installed it myself.

You could have some Plexiglas cut to size and fit it to your screen door so you can use it as a storm door. That would give you full view and when you want privacy you just shut the regular door. That way you can keep your trailer door stock.

Thank you that is the best solution. Bob

Like what Bob said but use LEXAN. Stronger, more scratch resistant and doesn't discolor with sun exposure like plexy.

When my last TT was broken into, the shop had to replace my door. I asked for clear (but tinted)glass to replace the obscure glass that it came with. I was so pleased with that upgrade. I can't believe that 6 years have passed with my new TT and I still haven't done this yet to it. It is on my list of things to do. You will love it.
