As the title really. If anyone has a spare rear window on their shelf in the garage anywhere I’m looking for one!

Would definitely consider used if anyone has anything available.

Your best bet is to have new plastic sewn into your factory zip. They will use the old window as a template to ensure a mm perfect fit to your car.

I’ve had this done before and it works very well. I used a guy in Coventry but he was supply and fit. Next time (soon) I will do it myself and use these guys.

Looks like a good price...how easy or difficult is it to change the clear screen and refit the original zip ?

I have done this before with a previous Z3, it was either than I expected. Around an hour with 2 people. Could have been a neater job but the zipping part was fairly straight forward.

Thanks Robert.
I have seen them in my hunt for a rear screen, however the car isn’t covered / in a garage so a large hole would need to be filled whilst the new window was getting restitched.

You can get a top half cover tailored for a Z3 that will solve the problem. That's what I'm doing.

Same situation myself. Weather isn't good to be out doing fiddly jobs. Looking to get a lockup for a weekend to do the repairs. Good luck. I also think i misquoted the uk price. It would be £91.
