Based on your measurements, your windows are likely: Note: ZIL sizing is by exterior frame, not glass. Your glass measurements are smaller than the model's window size because the frame adds ~10cm. The data plate code is the only reliable match.
Best case: ~496€ for 4 (Benz24 at 123,92€ each)
Mid case: ~596€ for 4 (Velux Shop at ~149€ each)
Worst case: ~771€ for 4 (La Boutique du Volet at 192,78€ each)
⚠️ CRITICAL: Velux ZIL screens are sized by MODEL CODE, not raw measurements.
Your measurements (103×83, 101×81, 87×71, 101×82.5) are glass dimensions. The ZIL must match the Velux window model code (CK02, MK06, PK06, SK06, etc.) printed on the data plate inside each window frame.

How to find model codes: Example: A CK02 ZIL fits windows with glass ~55×78cm. A PK06 fits ~94×118cm. Your windows are mid-size, likely MK06 or SK06 range, but only the data plate confirms.

Once you have the codes, I can look up exact prices at each store.
