Thank you.
Auto Sports says replacement is “out of their wheelhouse”. I can obtain the glass from 914 Werk but I still need an area shop with 914 experience. |

Few and far between when it comes to windows with butyl tape and aluminum trim. If you aren't a DIY guy, find a friend who is, read a couple threads on how to install and diy. |

But I read posts on here. Take the opportunity to clean the metal around where it will set. Get butyl tape. Don't use glue. I had to drill the holes for the clips slightly bigger. |
