Replacing bow window pane

Broke the outside glass of the fixed double panel of our bow window.
it is a vinyl window.
any advise how to replace it and if it can be done from inside ?

 

No, it is not done from inside.

In all likelihood, you will need to set up a ladder or scaffold outside. There are probably glazing strips that need to be removed (pryed off) on the exterior perimeter of the glass. These get reused. The inside perimeter of the glass is likely glazed with two faced glazing tape. Hard to tell, but most are. You will need to cut that tape to get the glass out. And you need to get the glass out to measure it and order a new one. You need the exact size and thickness of the double pane unit before you can order the new one. You will also need the same size and thickness of glazing tape. So you basically need to take it out, measure it, and put it back in until the new one arrives. As a backup plan, you could put 3/4 plywood in temporarily instead.

If this seems too much for you, just call any city glass company, they can measure, order, and replace it for you.

 

Thanks ... I was hoping it is like replacing window that you do from inside
hopefully I will not require a plywood since the second pane (inside) is still good
