Solution allbizz49 Posted August 15, 2021 Solution Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 Go to your local glass shop. They should be able to use yours as a template and cut you a new one. Should replace both, modern safety glass is pretty inexpensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 Ebay, online, plenty of options. Its flat glass so there are a ton of people out there than can cut them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plymouthy Adams Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 cutting using your old pane can often be a poor fit and only as good as the cutter is experienced.....if the shop does not cut by the NAG patterns....I would be concerned with fitting issue. I would by todays standards also suggest tempered glass over the safety glass for all but the windshield panes. Online you will find shops in your general area that would be able to cut per your requirements. Tempered glass will often be cut locally, shipped to be fired and then returned to the shop or yourself direct from the firing facility.

I purchased a driver's side glass for my P15 from this vendor: https://www.sandersreproglass.com/ The glass fit perfectly, was shipped securely and I think the price was very reasonable. I got the pencil grind on the edges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
