Hi fastest250r, I too have a 2006 33FS Gearbox and lost my emergency exit window this past weekend.
I found out I lost the window when another RV came alongside and told me that the emergency exit window smashed into his RV. There is minimal damage to him and he'll let me know if I need to pay for any repairs. I am just thankful that this ordeal didn't cause an accident.
My question to you is what did you do? Did you find a replacement on the web? It would be very helpful to me if you could provide me with a part number/web site that you used or any other helpful info will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan

I have a 2006 35 foot gearbox and after ariving at our campground on Friday night I found that I was missing the fire escape window in the master bedroom. The window and male side of the latch are gone. I am looking for any suggestions on where to find this window, preferably just the window with latch. The outer frame is still there and does not appear to be damaged. On top of that we didn't even see any darn birds let alone get to shoot any!
Let me know what you guys think.
I don't know where you are in Ks but, Give these guys a call.
They are BIG, BIG, BIG...............and have lots of parts.

mine tryed to fallout this last weekend, the brackets are riveted on with aluminum thru the frame and pulled out and let the wind work on it and almost lost the whole window. I repaired with steel pop rivets!
I think it is a poor manufactured window problem and everyone should check yours!!

Maybe able to buy parts but usually an assembly is cheaper.
What brand are the other windows in the trailer?

I am missing mine as well, you have to call a specialty dealer for your vehicle for me that would be Fleetwood, my first call was camping world and they refered me to the right people. However they wanted me to buy the entire window assembly as they don't sell pieces of it. I am only missing the glass though as the glue came undone. Good luck to you there are some auction sites out there that auction burned out shells for next to nothing that maybe you could get a window off of(just a thought)

I've had two occasion's when I nearly lost one. Once when the screws came out (in the rain) found out when I found the water inside. And once when the kids open'd it and didnt latch it.
I now have a small bead of silicone on the window frame, it can probably be open'd pretty easy and I dont get the air leak that these windows have.
