I broke a glass on the back quarter of my van and there don't seem to be tons of options for replacing it.
The part is the asymmetrical large pane over the two sliders on the passenger side.
Anyone know where/who to look?

In the event of a collision, that could be a disaster, pieces flying everywhere. | | | Re: Glass replacement for G20 conversion | Joined: Nov 2013 Posts: 3,692 Likes: 32 pooh-bah | pooh-bah Joined: Nov 2013 Posts: 3,692 Likes: 32 | Yes, it has to be proper automotive glass.
My neighbor used to build hot rods. For side windows and rear glass on cars with a chopped top (in other words, the flat glass), our local glass company would cut proper tempered safety glass, available in different tints. The only thing they couldn't help with was the laminated windshield. That took a specialist to cut down the original. | | |
