The windshield on my '92 Horizon 190 was crushed by a falling tree and not surprisingly my local dealer can't get the replacement parts from Four Winns. If someone is parting out a 1991 or 1992 FW Horizon (180 to 220 models) or even a 1993 Freedom, I'd be very interested in the Windshield and/or some some Interior parts such as the engine cover with jump seats and the side panels. Thanks

Just checking to see how things turned out. Did you find a windshield? I am in the same situation and am looking for the drivers side front windshield of my 1992 Horizon.
Thanks and have a great day!

Yes, I finally found one on E-bay about 2 months ago. I feel your pain because I know how hard it is to get a replacement. I can tell you the 1992 Horizon 180 has the same windshield as the 190 as that's what I settled on. The most expensive part was having it shipped from Minnesota to Ontario. Yikes. I still have a lot of feelers out there so if I hear anything about another windshield I’ll let you know. All the best.

Finally!! After almost one full year I found a windshield! Believe it or not, I found a marine/salvage yard near Monroe, MI that had bought out an old Four Winns dealer and has a number of brand new parts that people ordered and then never picked up. I was able to get a brand new windshield with the frame. It even had the part number and inspection number on it. They are only an I.O. repair facility so also had a number of recondition parts. Here is the info on it just in case anyone in the area needs it:
Checker Marine Service, Inc.
3280 Stein Rd.
LaSalle, MI 48145
Ph. (734) 243-2683
Fax (734) 243-6039
Thanks to all that responded and forward info. for me. Have a safe season!

I might be mistaken but I think there was a late 80's four winns boat right up in front by the shop. They are very comfortable with you looking through the boats to find your part. Hope you find what you need.
