Panoramic/wrap around windows

Hello. We are needing some expert advice on replacing our 84 Sovereign 31' rear panoramic window that was damaged by the PO. We've attempted to locate a replacement window but so far we have not been successful. We did find a 77argosy window that might work?
Here are our questions.
1.) Does anyone know if argosy windows are interchangeable with our AS? If so, what years/models?
2.) If we go the lexan route does anyone have (or know wherewe can get) specific measurements for cutting a replacement window? Any tips for getting it into the old frame?

I'm attaching photos to show what a mess we have gotten ourselves into. The PO backed into a tree and mashed up the area around the top and side of the window. We've done extensive work to repair that area with new aluminum and correcting the damage done to the frame. We thought the window would be the easy part! LOL

Thanks in advance!

Sorry about the wonky pictures...I've attempted to correct them several times.

We would certainly want to replace it with a new window If we can actually get our hands on one! This is for a rear roadside pano.
Are you referring to parts directly from Airstream manufacturers? Who/what numbers would I call? The replacement windows we found from all the online sources are not for this year.

Did you try Outofdoorsmart? or Inland Rv in california . another would be vintage trailer supply, I didn't know the rear windows were different than the front .

Call and talk to Ben in the parts department at Outofdoorsmart, he helped me get a new door ordered for my 1994 AS thru Airstream.

I bought a replacement from Out of doors mart, not only was it not oem, it was complete crap!
A waste of a lot of time and money.
