Forest River Sunseeker windshield & glass replacement
A Forest River Sunseeker uses the cab windshield from whichever cutaway chassis it was built on — Ford E-450 or Chevrolet 4500 — costing about $350–$850 installed. Check the chassis badge before ordering, because Sunseekers ship on both.

The Sunseeker is the model where guessing the chassis costs you a wasted delivery. Forest River builds it on both Ford and Chevrolet cutaways, and the two cabs take completely different windshields.
Once the chassis is identified, this is an inexpensive, fast, widely available piece of glass.
What to know before you order Forest River Sunseeker glass
- Read the VIN and the chassis badge before ordering. Ford E-450 and Chevrolet 4500 cabs are not interchangeable in any respect.
- Sunseeker cabover caps overhang the glass; releasing the trim without cracking aged fiberglass is the skilled part of the job.
- Forest River side and bunk windows are typically Kinro or Lippert framed units and follow the RV window parts channel, not the automotive one.
- Sunseeker and Forester are closely related builds; a shop that has done one will know the cap release on the other.
How to get an accurate Forest River Sunseeker quote
- Have the VIN ready — on a class c the glass follows the Ford E-450 cutaway / Chevy 4500, and model year decides the part.
- Say whether the damage is a chip, a running crack, a stress crack with no impact point, or dual-pane fogging — each is a different job.
- Ask whether the quote is OEM or aftermarket glass, and whether freight is included.
- Confirm the safe drive-away time so you know when the coach can move.
- Get the workmanship warranty on leaks and stress cracks in writing before work starts.

Forest River Sunseeker Glass Questions
How much is a Sunseeker windshield?
About $350–$850 installed. Chevrolet-chassis units sometimes run slightly higher purely on regional glass availability.
How do I tell which chassis my Sunseeker is on?
Check the badge on the cab and the VIN's first characters — a Ford cutaway VIN and a Chevrolet cutaway VIN differ immediately. Your registration also lists the chassis make.
Is a Sunseeker windshield covered by insurance?
Comprehensive coverage typically applies to rock and storm damage. Many carriers waive the deductible entirely for a chip repair.
