Suncoast does a great job! Their price is 275 for first and 250 for each additional window. Parts that have to be replaced are reasonably extra. "Window" means the entire opening on the driver or passenger side. Mine were stained to the point of being dangerous to try to see through so I made an appointment and stayed 2 nights in their lot(50a elec., water and free wifi). It's well worth the price.
One window Drivers seat, only the slider part(1/2) of the whole opening was fixed on 5/1/13 and cost was $303.08 including tax.
One kitchen window, non slider 1/2 of whole opening fixed, 5/5/11 was $294.68 including tax. - ss340dusterExplorer

Send me your email address via private message and I'll send you a file with the info. Let me know if you want the file in PDF form or Word 2007 form.
There is some info on the Dave Root RV GLass Repair site about how to measure and determine the thickness of your spacer inside the windows. It's educational to look at. Here's the link:
info on measuring spacer thickness
I did not buy the Dave Root kit, but purchased from other internet sites discussed in my file I'll send you.
Any questions, just ask.

the PM is sent Fred - Diplomat_St_PooExplorerThis is a do-it-yourself site. It worked for a friend of mine. BTW he was able to do a number of the windows without removng them as the edges were accessible.

If you're a do it yourself type, you can remove the window, split open the frame (held together with screws), cut open the two sections of glass, clean the glass, install new spacer, and glue back together. Materials cost less than $100. If the glass will not clean up, then you'll have to have a glass company make new tempered glass for you. Mine was fogged for 2 years, and only one of the two panes had to be replaced.
Let me know if you want more info.

Fred would like more info please thanks so much - Executive45Explorer IIIDouble paned windows provide insulation from heat, cold and noise. Lots of posts about this very issue. Use the search box at the top of the page and put in "fogged windows", or a variation.....if the windows are fogged where you cannot see clearly out of your mirrors, contact your insurance company. Mine replaced mine under comprehensive since it was a safety issue.....Dennis

those places are no were near me, why does it need double window there anyway no other windows are double can i just remove permanantly and clean myself?
I forgot your question in my other post. Yes, you can but I've never done it. I've read of another rv'r that broke the inside pane, cleaned up the mess, and cleaned the remaining window. Now how you break just the inside window pane is going to be the tricky part. If you get all of the old glass out, the the window is thinner and you may have a rattle and loose window to deal with.
