Tdi ute - rear window.

[VladTepes]

With a canopy I really have no need for a opening rear window.
In any event it's covered in silicon, the rubber and felt needs replacing, etc.

Perhaps putting a fixed window in might be a better option?

Anyone done this?

Take it from the bulk replies. the answer is NO lol

I've done it. I just removed the frame from the vehicle, took to glazier, who cut a piece of tempered glass to suit. In my case one of the glass panels had shattered, and this was the easiest solution at the time.

towe0609 and what seal/rubber/whatever did you use to fit the glass into the frame?

Too long ago sorry - I can't remember. Probably the original seals. Mine was not very old at the time. I'll try to remember to have a closer look at it

Hey mate were you able to establish if its an original seal?

If you are looking to replace the original bailey channel seal with a better one on the rear sliding window, I can get a part number for you. It doesn't rattle at all, the original was junk from new.

If you are modifying it I can't help.

I'd appreciate the part number anyway as I may yet just replace what I have. Ta

Hello All,

It would be really good to have a photograph of what window is being discussed. I read the word 'ute' in the 90, 110 and 130 Defender section and I had to come for a browse. Especially, the bit about a part number for a better type of bailey channel for the sliding rear windows. My 1993 Defender Snowy's seals and channel need replacing.

Kind regards
Lionel
