Need Passenger side GT Sail Panel glass
« on: October 03, 2017, 04:31:31 pm »
Anyone know where I can find a Passenger side GT Sail Panel glass?  Mine is cracked into 1000 crazed peices (still holding together like a champ though) :)  I have seen them knew for about $100 but figured someone may have one used they could let go.  Thanks!

Someone recently listed an NOS pair on Pennocks, still wrapped in the GM wrappings, but I think they were wanting about $700 for the pair.  gtfiero on ebay, Chris Cook sells reproductions, but they aren't exact.  i think he only sells them by the pair at ~ $200.  They're printed with the correct ink so it doesn't delaminate.  He also supplies the correct application tape.

Chris Cook used to supply Fiero Warehouse. I have a set on my car. They're not perfect, but they're quite good, especially for the price.
Mine are dark tinted with no GT logo.

Are those the ones available for like $110-$120 online?

It depends upon who's selling them.  Chris sells his for about $200 a pair.  My experience with the lower priced windows was that they were seconds sold by someone else.  I guess they had bought them from another vendor because they were seconds.  Full of trash and printed with the wrong ink that peeled off easily.  I installed a set of Chris's windows on my brother's 86 a year or two before Raydar installed his.  The car was sold last year and the windows were still intact.

Chris' windows are also available from TFS, for a bit more, but there is also recourse, in case of issues.

It was years ago that I purchased a pair of windows from another Fiero vendor.  They were from TFS.  Still had TFS labels stuck on them.  They were the ones that were full of trash and the black background could easily be scratched with the fingernail.  This vendor is well known in the Fiero community, but he was selling seconds. 

Maybe TFS has changed to Chris Cook as a supplier, but the ones that I got from the third party vendor definitely weren't Chris's.  Once I got my refund, I ordered Chris's and those are the ones I referred to above as having been on so long.

TFS sold quarter windows from 2 vendors, for a while, but had issues with communication from the other vendor.

None of the quarter window vendors seem to be very good with communication.

Thanks for the info.  Does anyone know how to buy just one window?  Or whether or not you can buy directly from Chris vs. Ebay?

Chris offers 1 window on ebay.  That's from him directly, user gtfiero.

Thanks OLDONE.  Unfortunately I was a day late and a dollar short :)  I appreciate the effort though.  Still looking!

I have a decent one that you can have if you want to come get it. Has some crazing but it's still in one piece.  :D
