Best Solutions for Protecting or Covering a 5th Wheel Front Window

I am currently in talks with a company in Texas to see if they will make me cover that would Velcro on the window on the outside. They already make some, just not the size I need. I will post the info if it turns out positive.

how about a canvas type cover that snaps on like the "bras" for vehicles.

What about using the existing window as a mold and having some place a body shop or boat yard make a fiberglass panel to go on it's place? You could structurally frame and insulate it like the rest of the front wall.

Snap covers on the front are questionable when moving. A strong side wind can get underneath and pull it off. Strong Velcro can have a better chance when towing as there is less chance of wind getting under it.

I considered that option as well, the main drawback being cost. If this other option doesn't pan out, I may investigate that route.

Keep the snaps close together Velcro would need to be around the entire piece. They use both to enclose the underside for cold weather.
