I didn't measure, I assume it is same as side glass which measures 3 mm.
Original rear glass measured 5.2 mm.

Been thinking about adding the RS rear glass to my project. Does anyone know if it will fit a '97? I thought I read somewhere there were different revisions to the rear glass design...
Also, does anyone have first hand experience with noise level? I did a lot of search on the internet and there is a corner regarding creaks from the RS glass, but might be mostly hearsay...
