Wanted 43DC Windshield Hardware

[Jammin']

Does anyone have or know where I could get the hardware to hold open and shut the middle windshield for a 1973 43DC, or an alternate solution? Sam's does not have the part. The rod is 32-1/2" long. Has anyone worked out an electric solution and if so, was it worth it?

I was going to say Sam’s until I read on. I’ll keep my eyes open. Good luck.

Not sure if you are having same problem but I have same boat and window slider was jamming on pole. I took off one of the two brackets holding the pole and flipped it. Works like new now that worn, pitted end of pole on other end. Thought I would pass it on.

Unfortunately, the hardware is completely missing. I've found a few things that look like possibilities like this Osculati hatch adjuster. I'll take some measurements this weekend.

I checked my local consignment store called blue pelican in Alameda California but unfortunately they did not have one.
