I'm am hoping someone can tell me where to buy the center windshield twist knobs to torque the window closed. They are very unique since the have a progressive disc backing setup that pulls harder on the window the more you twist. Any help finding these would be appreciated .

Thanks for looking and getting back to me. Those are the ones I currently have on the boat as replacements however nobody knows where to find the originals. They are hard to explain but I will try. They have a base approx the size of a quarter and are progressive like a shim so the more you twist the more it locks the window down to the gasket. All 31 opens that are older had them and most of them broke over time. I will try and take a picture of my dad's so people know what I'm talking about. Thanks for looking.

Good luck.

Thanks for the info but those are not the ones. I will take a picture of them this weekend and post .My dads are still intact on his 31 open .Thanks.

This is a sample of the extremely hard to find twist knobs. Notice it's a half disk that gets taller the more you twist to pull harder on the window. Thanks again TOF

I have the same ones on my 86' 3600. So if anyone finds them, I need some as well.

have bought them directly from Tiara in the past.

I have called Tiara which I normally do first in regards to any parts. They claim they do not have them available but I will try again. Thanks.

Had the same on my 1988 33 Open. Was told by Tiara years ago they did not have any. Please keep me also in the loop if any solution comes up. Maybe someone who has access to 3D software with a 3D printer. The Taylor tabs don't keep the water out. Thanks, Rodger surfveyor@aol.com
