New glass?
Old Hutcho - December 10th, 2011 at 04:03 PM
Has anybody had new glass made for their bug? I have a 65 bug project and all the glass I am getting is crap frankly. I was thinking maybe O'Briens
or someobdy would make me some if I provided the original as a template?

any glazier can cut laminated glass to a template, make sure you get the edges polished though and I'd get more than one quote, Obriens are usualy
prety expensive.

Yes, o'briens can cut it for You
one of the locals had tinted door glass cut out from there..
I just tinted all Mine...
if You look around, there is sure to be some used glass in good condition... especially rear and side glass..
door glass and 1/4 windows are usually scratched after 40++ years....
My Son had oval windscreens cut out from o'briens too....
all laminated...
just remember that laminated door glass doesn't shatter like the original safety glass... if its broken...
