Driver side small rear windor broken
After a trip to Joliet, IL., for work while pulling into the home base park hit an door awing and shattered the drivers side rear window on our 8313MS.
While looking for the part number, found it on Trekwood RV & Supply.
Was told I might have to pull the broken frame out to get the number of it.
Luckily from the info on Trekwood I was able to get with Lippert to cross to their number.
Trekwood info - Window - 18" x 35" - SV - Grey 20 - Temp - Black - w/Screen - Frameless - F300-43441.
The Lippert cross over number - V000341596.

Well, that bites. But, I'm glad to hear you found a replacement. Install "should" be relatively easy. Good luck! Happy camping!

When I broke a frameless window on our rig I started shopping and found that Lippert would send me one for $1600. I could get a direct replacement piece of glass for $450 from and aftermarket outfit.
I started shopping by OEM part number as well as window size and found a new, complete window from an RV surplus place selling on eBay for $200. SOLD
It pays to look around a bit. FWIW, window size callouts are based on the rough opening, not the exact size of the window. The frame of our window measured approx 17.5" wide by approx 47.5" tall, fixed over vent. But the callout (RO dimension) was 18 x 48. So know your callout and start searching.

You could also call around to local glass shops to find one that does RV's. Would be much cheaper than buying whole new one.

When we broke the window by the dining table several years back, I went to a local glass shop and asked them if they could fix it. They said to bring it in and they would measure it and let me know if they could replace it. Took the unit in, they measured it, figured out what shade the tint was, ordered a replacement and installed it all for less than $400. I had to wait for a couple weeks since it was a special order and the glass is tempered glass but it sure beat the price from Trekwood or Lippert. Your window is much smaller so it should be a whole lot less also. Give some of your local glass shops a try. If nothing else take a picture of it and take that into the shops to give them an idea of what it would take to replace.

I had to replace two windows on my rig. I found a local glass shop and they did it for > $200 per window. Much better deal and I did not have to do the work; drove in and out in a day.
