Asking for a friend Calling on 242 owners

So i thought i would ping the community to see what everyone knew about the cabin doors.  This is for a 2004 242.  The boat was damaged last week when a tornado came through town and blew down the building on top of the boat.  It held up well though.  The windshield was smashed and the cabin door was broken.  At first glance the door itself looks ok but the hardware that it uses to glide in the track is messed up.  Does anyone know who made those doors or could have replacement parts?  I did look at Ebay, Great Lakes Skipper and the next step was going to ask Rinker themselves.  Thought i would see if anyone here had a recommendation first.

Given the age I think GLS will be the best option.

Thanks @Stodge.  GLS was my first stop, then ebay, then google, then here.  GLS has a new full windshield so that was good news.  I also found this site on Boat Outfitters https://www.boatoutfitters.com/hardware/sliding-door-hardware That i think will give them the parts they need.  Need to get some pics and measurements but at least they have options.

I think Taylor Made makes the windshields.  

Best of luck to your friend.
