install sliding door in mobile home

Tags: Windows & Doors
I have a 1974 mobile home. I want to replace the 2 jalousie windows in the rear bedroom with a sliding glass door. How hard is this going to be? What is in between the interior paneling and exterior siding? HELP!

I have the same question but apparently no one has ever done this....Bob Vila only works on rich peoples homes I guess.

I have the same question, Kind of. I just wanted to know if it would be structurally sound to take out windows in a mobile home and replace with sliding glass doors?
