    Lightweight windows

    I am looking for correct, original light weight windows 4.2mm. Particularly the drivers door window (left side) and right rear 1/4 window (Glaverbel). Possibly a 4.2mm rear window with single stage heating element. Parts are for a 1973 Porsche RS M471 and need to be correct. Any help is appreciated.

    These guys had some a while ago. Might be worth dropping them a line.

    Hi Chad

    Not sure you are correct in your wishings

    To my knowledge only the rear side where Glaverbel on a RSR/ RSL I dont think Glaverbel ever did the door windows

    these are mine if you are interested ...sold out new batch in spring .. sold these to alot of high end restores so I know they are correct
    but these guys would have told me to make the door side windows IF they excist

    Hi Marek,
    You are correct, only the quarter windows are Glaverbel. The door windows are Sekurit and the lightweight came with 4.2mm glass instead of 4.8mm (approx). Both thicknesses have the exact same markings, so the only way to tell a thin door window from a thicker one is to measure it. I will send you a PM about the quarter windows. I will post photos later when i get a chance.
