Side Door Glass

Discovered last night that the side door glass for my 70 442 convertible is scratched beyond repair. Multiple scratches on both doors. There are lots of options online from the Olds specialty suppliers (around $249 each) to multiple glass dealers with prices starting at $99 each. Does anyone have experience with any of these dealers and reccomendations to make? Time is my biggest enemy as the car is supposed to get a new top next week and the glass must be back in first.


Thanks for any ideas.

I have used auto city, their glass is foreign made but still looks good and fits well. They can also date code it with the LOF logo for you at extra cost. Good company to deal with too.

442Fred,


Thanks for the lead. I just talked to them. Everything is in stock, the price is great, sound like nice people but... they are backed up and cannot ship for two weeks - no exceptions. I just can't wait that long

Would help if you updated your profile to show where you are.

Placed an order with Pilkington yesterday. I haven't seen the product yet of course but. They had everything I needed in stock. Their prices were higher than some others but better than the Olds specialty places and, best of all, they will date code and ship in 4 days!. I should have all of it by next Thursday. They were great on the phone and I highly recommend them.
