Anybody have a new or used Mecaplex windows with green tint and scoop they would like to sell? Will also consider one without green tint.

This guy is in the Netherlands. He makes these himself.
I bought 3 of the pop out scoops from him. I also had
him cut a hole in a sliding window blank and mount one
of his pop out scoops for me. He was quick, professional,
and everything looks like it's factory made. His prices are
very reasonable even with shipping to the USA too.

Oh awesome, thanks!

You will still have to cut and router out the opening for the recessed pop-out window - if you have a simple sliding window right now. That process is way beyond what your regular DIY pilot is capable of. I looked into this offer for my previous glider and decided it is not really a solution.

Herb, I sent him a window that had no cut-out. He cut the hole,
routed out the lip, and mounted one of his pop-out windows in
a very professional looking job for me - and his price was very
reasonable. It is flush, and looks just like it came from the factory.
