Most reputable salvage yards or auto recycle centers are part of a nation wide network and should be able to locate replacement window. The shipping may be pricey. (It is a good idea to visit a few local yards and see if any have a vehicle like yours for future cannibalizing).

Replacing it is moderately difficult. You may need to replace the plastic tabs that hold the door panel on as the originals are probably brittle from age and will shatter when you pull the panel. NAPA should have those. Also, you might need a second set of hands. Good luck.

Glass shop replaced a read door glass on my 78 VW rabbit that was brok at my sons work. They had a glass shop do it. I would guess it would still be available too.

Grandmaster of the "Shade Tree" way.. I can't see the yard for all the cars. Come on down and we will sit on the porch and watch the grass grow.

I got one from the local salvage yard and put it on myself wasn't hard at all. Thanks for all your help.
