964 rear glass
 

Hi Folks, I'm trying to help a fellow 964er in need of rear glass for a '90 coupe. Any suggestions as to suppliers of replacement Porsche glass?

Thanks much for any info.

Where are you located?

I researched a bit & found that the glass is availible at the tune of $8-900 not including the seal. Not sure if the replacements have defrost wires & also not sure if this would be a DIY. His C4 was hit by a broken garage door spring & not covered by insurance.

I tried researching some used parts and I could not find it, did you try using LA Dismantlers or Oklahoma Foreign? You have to find someone parting out a 964 - make sure when you buy the part you get the proper insurance through USPS ;)

Try DC auto or fleabay..also One slip installing it and you will crack it, Most shops around here dont charge that much to install glass (but they make you sign a waiver if it cracks)

Also best to replace the seal...very cost effective in the long run

Has he checked to see if it would be covered under his homeowner's insurance?

I've had good luck with DC Auto on the east coast, and PartsHeaven out west - either should have glass available.

thanks guys
i would think homeowners will cover it.....I'll suggest.

get the euro version without the stop light in it, and add the 993 stop light shroud

In my state, glass is covered in full with no deductible by my insurance. If your rear window had a crack(not suggesting anything) ,it could be replaced. I always thought, that If I replaced mine, I would get the European model? , the one without the patch for the rear interior brake light.Then install an aftermarket exterior rear light/spoiler combo.(Performance has them).

newsboy - Do you have the link or part number for the rear light/spoiler combo? I'm having problems finding it on the Performance website.

Thanks

I have a 993 rear window, 993 high mount stop light and everything to convert it to the 993 high mount according to the tsb. And then I sold the car. Let me know if you have any intrest.

PM sent.

I have two sitting in my garage. If only you was in the UK!

This is the part #P900458. Price is $319.99
