The guy who owned my Barth ahead of me used rods that are simular to the kind used on curtins when you want to put them 'inside the window casing'.
you can twist them to tighten to partcular lenght and then wedge them between the moving glass and the frame. I have also seen this arrangement done on sliding glass doors ( with thicker bars, of course.)
I have all my locks but apparently he thought they were inadaquate.

My previous owner did the same as tigger with one modification. He drilled a small 1/16? hole low on the slider and then put a steel pin in the rod. Thereby some crook can't get something in and slide it up. I have these for every window including drivers and passenger.. By the way some of the older coaches have problems with a little air leaking in the cockpit windows. Gets cold and makes noise. If you make the rod long enough you can use it to keep the window closed tight.
