Set google maps InfoWindow to more than 700px width

Content of the InfoWindow that I intend to show is 840px x 660px. By setting MaxWidth property in the constructor 

(ex. new google.maps.InfoWindow({ content: some_text, maxWidth: 840});)

It sets the window with width of 707px. I've manage to overwrite classes for .gm-style-iw and for #content (my content is in div with properly set of width and height), but there are some div tags in between #content div tag and div tag with class .gm-style-iw with width of maximum 707px and height of max 645px (these values I've found by "Inspecting Element" in Chrome).

If I remove entire style (in Chrome Inspect Element) of the leading div tag (which contains at least 7-8 div sub-tags and among them div tag with class .gm-style-iw and #content div tag) and all sub-tags which are without specified class names nor specified id, then the window appears to be fine, BUT I can't manage to set width and height in the class or javascript... can someone help me with this?

do not pass 840px pass value like 840.if you use 840px this you will be getting error like:

identifier starts immediately after numeric literal

you should use this: 

var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
      content: contentString,
      maxWidth: 840
  });

see a small demo:

function initialize() {
  var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-25.363882,131.044922);
  var mapOptions = {
    zoom: 4,
    center: myLatlng
  };

  var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), mapOptions);

  var contentString = '<div id="content">'+
      '<div id="siteNotice">'+
      '</div>'+
      '<h1 id="firstHeading" class="firstHeading">Uluru</h1>'+
      '<div id="bodyContent">'+
      '<p><b>Uluru</b>, also referred to as <b>Ayers Rock</b>, is a large ' +
      'sandstone rock formation in the southern part of the '+
      'Northern Territory, central Australia. It lies 335&#160;km (208&#160;mi) '+
      'south west of the nearest large town, Alice Springs; 450&#160;km '+
      '(280&#160;mi) by road. Kata Tjuta and Uluru are the two major '+
      'features of the Uluru - Kata Tjuta National Park. Uluru is '+
      'sacred to the Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara, the '+
      'Aboriginal people of the area. It has many springs, waterholes, '+
      'rock caves and ancient paintings. Uluru is listed as a World '+
      'Heritage Site.</p>'+
      '<p>Attribution: Uluru, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Uluru&oldid=297882194">'+
      'http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Uluru</a> '+
      '(last visited June 22, 2009).</p>'+
      '</div>'+
      '</div>';

  var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
      content: contentString,
      maxWidth: 840
  });

  var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
      position: myLatlng,
      map: map,
      title: 'Uluru (Ayers Rock)'
  });
  google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
    infowindow.open(map,marker);
  });
}

google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
   html, body, #map-canvas {
        height: 100%;
        margin: 0px;
        padding: 0px
      }
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3&sensor=false&libraries=drawing,geometry"></script>
<div id="map-canvas"></div>
