Hi all,
I asked something about this long ago but can't find the thread. I want to replace the rear side slider windows in my Town Wagon with solid glass, no frames. I already purchased the correct gasket material for glass.
Some of the other side windows in trucks I've had were laminated glass, with the plastic sheet inside, don't know if that's still available?
Seems to me I could save a lot of money doing this job by just getting my new glass cut to the square dimensions, then rounding the corners myself with a grinder. The shops do it somehow, so it's do-able. I wonder if a high-speed air die grinder would be the tool to use to shape the corners round? Any suggestions?
I do remember from past threads that JohnB already called dibbs on my take-out side glass, JohnB.
