Hey all,

Been a while since i popped in - hope all are well.

Some little punks thought it would be funny to put a hammer through the old girls front driver door glass the other night - so now i need to replace it. Which got me thinking...

Is anyone aware of which factory glass slots straight into xr-xy front doors with only the removal of the quarter vent? I have seen 2 or 3 show/race cars with this mod however have never uncovered the secret as to which factory glass is used.

Any assistance appreciated!

Cheers

Your right - a few are custom glass which equals big $$ (compared to simple replacement).

I have spoken to one guy who has done the mod, and by his account it was simply a case of removing the qtr vent, and install another factory piece of glass. e.g 1
