Rockwood mini lite front window

The front tinted window does not have a cover available . How do you protect it from rocks , stones, and other road debris from cracking or chipping the glass?Any suggestions or product recommendations to protect this exposed front window?

We got a huge chip/crack on our Flagstaff 2019 MicroLite front window in January. We’re still waiting for it to be replaced after filing an insurance claim. We’ll be putting a decorative film over the new glass.

Windshield glass is pretty tough, I don't worry about it.

I have a number of chips in the front cap, nothing in the window.

Even it is would crack on a trip it would almost never break through and interrupt a trip.

Where did you find the 8mil clear film? A previous post linked to a company selling 4mil film for our campers, but I would like to try the thicker one.

This is what I used. Just verify your window height to get the right size.
