Vantage Plane Plastics has it but you may not see it on their web site.  Call them.  It's a part that they've produced but it hasn't been fully approved.  There is a process where they can sell it to you if you ship them your old parts (or pieces of your old parts).  I found this out after I spent hours restoring mine.  

Ask for Mooney windows UK130209-005 & UK 130209-006.  POC:  Tonya Weinhoffer <tonya.weinhoffer@vantageassoc.com>

I will check with them again but the last rep I was working with quit replying to my emails around OSH and has been radio silence since. Those pieces above look to be J windows, I still need the center divider in the F/G but hopefully they have it.

Wait a sec…

Do you really want to keep the two small windows…

Or take out the trim and modernize to the larger single window?

it’s a non-structural upgrade…

 

If going through all the effort… the more modern parts are probably more available…

Best regards,

Oh heck.  I thought you were looking for the modified F window (like the J).  I read "one piece" and thought one-piece window.  Sorry.  I would check their web site.  They might have the original F trim.

Its on the list, but I have already fell into the “while were in there” trap for an amount I’d care not to admit. So its a project for the future at this point. Plus I have have rear J panels with single window trim attached ready to go for when that happens. It’s always something….

How badly cracked is it? When Bruce Jaeger did my interior, he showed me how to repair the cracks. It’s not perfect but repaired, cleaned up and painted with a good SEM color, they look really good.

I am just missing that side. I was able to buy a single piece co-pilot side with a bunch of other interior parts and need the pilot side so they match.

My plane came with individual trim pieces for each of the back windows, the single is much cleaner.

I fixed the pieces I reused/retro with Fiberglass Chop Mat and poly resin on the back, then filler on the front. A lot of my pieces had been previously fixed with the aluminum tape method but that didn't seem to hold up great and was especially worried about them in Phoenix temps.
