Don't know where you buy new. I bought my surplus ones at Bontragers in Michigan. There, you walk around with a tape measure and try to find what you would like to have size wise. There are a lot of windows there which do not have the inner ring. I stayed away from them but they could be used if you make your own fasteners. Look at Kenns thread and see how his are held in during his build. The two small windows in our build are for thinner walls and yes, we just used longer screws. There is a slight gap which doesn't look the best if it gets too big. From what I saw there, most are for 2" walls.
