New/Replacemnt Hatch Glass?

[C.A.R.]

Guys,

While attempting to gently remove the hatch glass from the seal (so I could perform rust repairs to the hatch frame) I shattered the glass... > :'( (is it supposed to be THAT fragile? )

So after shouting expletives for several minutes & finally calming down, does anyone know if new hatch glass can be obtained & from where?

 

Any help appreciated.

Temperd glass is already in itself under a lot of pressure...doesnt take much to break it! Found out by "helping" a friend get his keys out of a locked Z32. Did it before but this last time...bang! new passenger side window!

I think Ash may have some spare....Ash???

Cheers mate, I couldn't believe how little pressure it took!

I'll give Ash a call...

Thanks Warren! I did a seatch but I didn't find that

 

BTW, if anyone has a 2-seater Hatch Glass in Vic they'd like to sell, please let me know!

Lurch, I did the same thing to the windscreen on the first Z, (big crack) this one I'm just cutting the seal away since I'll be replacing it anyway. 

 

If it's of interest there is a guy up here (Greg) who is borrowing my hatch glass and getting perspex ones made up.  He's calling for anyone interested in a group buy: http://thezgarage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1497

Anybody nead a roommate? B.O.s taking this country down. One thing though, I carry my Sig .40 legally here in Texas, and I'm guessin' that ain't happenin' down under. After all, this is still the old west. By the way, I'll bring the glass with me!

[C.A.R.]

Nomally I'd take that as a tounge-in-cheek comment, but since your from Texas...

Perhaps a new thread Lurch??

 

 

We could discuss this post at great length, however for those of us ( and I only speak for myself at present ) who have an interest in World and Local economics and procastinate over who may or may not be responsible for the position we are ALL in due to various factors rightly or wrongly and wonder how and when the f#*k we are going to get out of this one

 

Normally I would ignore this type of comment and would dismiss it with the contempt it deserves, however in this instance, Im not real keen on gun toting R#dn#cks!!

 

Even if he does own a Z car
