Broken front cap glass - cold weather or vandalism

I can't argue that point since we weren't there but have a very special term starting with the word "Bull".



My wife walked around the camper once and I did it twice to check for open windows, turn off the water and check hatch locks It is covered by insurance so it wont hurt too much besides the inconvenience



Now, the point of this thread - has anyone found an on-line source for replacement glass only. Many, including Trekwood will sell complete windows but in a so far cursory look, haven't found a glass source yet. I'll be checking the local glass companys as well, but chance of finding the right color may be slim. If it ends up that I need to replace the entire window, Hehr, in their wisdom, has put the part number on the inside of the frame - grrrr



Another project is looming, whichever way I go

Went out to my 2019 3731 located on a country 5 acre lot and found the glass in the entry door laying on the steps, with some glass inside and some on the steps. Most of what was left of the window was outside. The screen had a t shape cut about 3 inches in the lower left but door still locked. Walked around and saw the front cap glass still in place but 2 round "smash" areas where the glass was pushed in. No rocks or bricks laying around, no other damage and nothing inside or outside of the RV missing. Any chance this could be settling/stress, or as I think, vandalism?
