Hey Wil I had a whistling issue with my 84 and finally found out it was not the window. The wind was coming through a small gap at the front end of the gutter. I put a small amount of clear silicone caulk in the gap and that was the end of the whistle. Hope that helps. Keith O 84 Westy "Brownie" Solar Charged Camper FOR SALE! 90 Westy Syncro
