I recently bought an old parking meter. I need to replace the flat thick plastic windows on it. Is there somewhere that sells parts for these?
Thank you for any help!

Dave, you might try sending an email to Mike Carson (bruzer75@charter.net)... Mike for years worked on Parking Meters. He is battling some Medical Problems and as such not as active as he once was...

But, if you mention that I suggested that you send him an email; He might be able to answer your question(s).

There are several guys on Ebay that specialize in old parking meters. You might also consider cutting some yourself if it is just the flat window piece. Dave

Thank you... I would try to cut one myself if I knew where to get a piece of plastic that thick. Any ideas??

Most local glass shops also carry a supply of plastic sheeting.

Any hardware store or building supply house usually sells plexiglass in various thicknesses. Try Lowe's or Home Depot. Dave

And if you can't get the right thickness, a framing store may be able to get you your thickness, or at least clear spacers that you could use to press it on the correct side.
