I ordered a stargazer window last year, and due to the purchase of a house, I have been out of building my trailer for the last 6 months and I'm a bit rusty now that I'm returning to building. I'm installing the headliner this weekend and going over measurements and trying to figure out how to install the stargazer window. I received a window and a silvery metal frame with pilot holes drilled on the inside of the frame's flange. My assumption is that the outward facing flange should be towards the inside of the trailer and the window sits on top of the portion with the drilled holes on the outside portion of the trailer .
So a couple of questions...my plan is once the metal frame is in place to put some butyl tape between the metal and the window to create a weatherproof seal, but then I'm not sure if I should install screws through the pilot holes directly into the frame of the window? Do I drill holes in the undrilled flange to fasten it to the roof? What do I do with this dimpled adjustment bar, how do I manipulate it?
I just need some direction since I haven't found anybody directly addressing the install of this window. If there is a tutorial please point me in the right direction!
