Do you have these? Please let me know ASAP, I bought replacements, however they do not go over the top of the window. The piece that broke has two screws as well as the other. Thank you for your help.

Wow, this top sash guide is a little peculiar. I feel like I've seen it before but I haven't been able to dig up any old material on it.
At first glance, I'm instantly reminded of our 18-171. I think this can still work for you as a replacement, since the hole positions seem to be the same. The only down side is that it doesn't have that top cap, but that's just an aesthetic problem. That won't affect its function, it just means you'll have a little gap at the top corners of your sash. Would that be okay?

Is this the one that you are recommending, if so only one screw fits and it doesn't cover the upper sash

i will have to give these a try, i have contacted "every" glass company on the internet and in my hometown.
One last question, since this isn't the exact one is there any other type guide that I can use with a cap (even though shorter or longer?) i guess i'm answering my own question here cuz if it's to short none of the holes will match up...
ok i will go to your web site and purchase these and thank you for your help.

I don't believe any other top sash guide we have can work. The size is much more important to the function of the guide than the cap.
As for the other one you're showing us, that looks like our 18-008. I'm not sure if this is for a different window or not, but I can say that the 18-171 and 18-008 are not interchangeable.
Thank you for considering us, and please let me know how it works out.
