I have a 28' 2009 Born Free, RSB with 3 foggy windows in need of repair.
I contacted one of the FOGGY WINDOW repair companies and they want to know
if my window are "flush mount or glued in" ???
Does anyone know the answer to this concerning how the windows of a Born Free are installed?

It might help if you posted photos of your windows, both interior and exterior, as various types of windows were used by Born Free. Our 2006 24RB had sliding windows. Our 2017 Spirit (24RB) has crankout windows. However, I don’t really know if either ones were flush mount or glued, but other members might know if they saw photos.

Not sure when Born Free switched to a flush mount window but they are easy to identify. The window glass covers the entire opening for the window and sticks out about 1/4 inch from the body. The lower portion of the window opens with a top mounted hinge and swings out. The hinge can let about 1/3rd of the glass area to swing out or a bit larger on newer coaches. This swing out feature prevents most rain from entering the coach. You can not see the window frame from the outside of the coach only the glass. The "glued in" windows usually have the window open by sliding it or with a crank.
