1989 Winnebago Chieftain - windshield

Hello Everyone. I am a new owner of a 1989 Winnebago Chieftain RQ31 and this is the first RV I've ever owned so thought this forum would be a great place to start for help and tips. Some projects that are on my list to tackle are:
- driver side windshield replacement
- replace carpets
- replace/upgrade shower
- new flatscreen TV
- install rear view camera

The windshield is the main priority right now. Does anyone know where I could find a used/salvage one? Insurance won't cover it and replacing with new is quite expensive.

Thanks,
Nathan

Used Duncan for windshield replacement, would not tackle on my own.
Duncan and Salvage yard below
Replaced carpets, once with Vinyl floor, another time replaced all the carpet, removed couch, chair, Front drive and passenger chair and the dog house, wet the carpet and stretched on the dog house. Took several weekends.
TV's were easy, except the old 26" weighed a ton
never installed a new camera, my son did install one on his trailer for $50

Happy Rving!!!!
