I know others have installed a none opening porthole and a rectangular window. What I want is a porthole that opens and it has to have a flange for the 1.5" thick door on the 'pod. Most I am seeing either don't have the thickness spec or are for a 1 3/8" thick wall/door.

According to the "Zon - customer Q & A, the Amarine 10" will fit a 1.5" wall.....has anyone installed one?

I don't know of anyone that has put those in the door. I do know a couple podders put them in the wall, mostly bunk model owners. Don't forget the backside of your door is up against the screen door...

I''l have to take some measurements but i bet you are right, it will interfere with the screen.

The nice thing about the rectangular window is that it can be open with the screen door in place. It takes longer to think about it than it does to install.
