found them https://www.ew3.de/ they do appear to be pretty similar to residential UPVC windows so think im going to investigate that option as I never liked the MH plastic windows. I guess weight and vibration are two key factors to consider and those expedition vehicles can probably afford the extra weight. They use Eurodur® ESG (Toughened Glass) is a tempered safety glass which is up to five times stronger than regular glass with the same thickness.

Looks impressive and a bit like domestic windows. I guess if you were having them made you could ask for any glass you wanted.

Hope you have deep pockets as they are about £800 each last time I looked not the make you mention , but ones used by Bimobil and a few of the other top German builders . They even have built in altitude compensators for the double glazing .

but why go with Seitz windows, just because they are MH specific windows or because everyone else does and thats the safe option? For the money Seitz and GRP units are almost the same but the grp units are much more substantial, perhaps the weight factor is why people stick to MH plastic models.

if you're asking whether domestic windows are legal , i'd guess yes - same as any other toughened glass i reckon . i would get them made up locally . the window guys can get all sorts of ally or plastic profiles , so should be able to find one to fit flush ,or with a flange . i fitted out a large scania for a Czech guy and he had all the windows and doors made up in Prague .very cheaply

Beauty has always been in the eye of the beholder!!! Personally for practicality and cost you have to go a long way to beat the look and quality of a sietz window. 🧐 Phil
