Milgard Window Top sash guide

Hello,
I searched your site looking for top sash guides for my broken window. I purchased two S385-26 parts not knowing that my top sash guide was also broken. I found part number 18-008 and 18-008H but mine are much smaller then those height wise. Mine are 1 3/8 inches long and the screw hole is only 3/4 inch from the top. They are however also 5/8 inch wide like parts 18-008 and 18-008H. Do you have smaller one's like I described or should I just purchase 18-008H and make new screw holes in the window. Please let me know what you recommend.

Thanks,
Robert

Thanks for writing in. I'd be happy to help determine the best possible replacement solution for your top sash guide. However, I will need to see a photo of the existing guide to identify it.

There may be other details I'll need to see and it will help to ensure I am providing you with the best possible recommendation.

Thanks for the photos. We do not carry an exact match for the type of top sash guide you are searching for as your isn't made anymore, however, our 18-009 might be worth considering as a replacement. 

You will need to trim down the edges from the top of the guide to install them. So please be aware that any altered parts are non-returnable.

Take a look at the measurements and see what you think.
