I'm a little confused about the ad glass size for my Erie 777. The size 9 (5" x 11 3/4") that should fit most Erie pumps seems too tall as the clips on each side I measured are only 4" tall max. I don't have the crossbars yet and don't know if that matters, it doesn't seem like it should. Any advise would be really appreciated!

Do you mean Erie 77? If so 5"x 11 3/4" is correct

Thanks Chris, the pics are a big help. I was misunderstanding how the glass stayed in the clips. The faceplate window glass sits behind the ad glass, right? I can see on mine notches in the bezel, do the crossbars just slide in those? Thanks again. - Eric
The ID badge says Model 777? So maybe the last 7 is silent, lol.
