nurrish Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Couldn't find anything on this on the search. Is it easy enough to transplant the boot glass from one to another? Any info appreciated Quote
rtbiscuit Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 was spoeaking to my bodyshop earlier, and they said that they bond them in, so i don't kn ow how easy they would be to remove? try ringing a windscreen repair place to see if they would swap them over for you? Quote

Yes this will be my back up plan However people that know me know that i like doing things myself Quote
MrLizard Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 i have an entire boot for sale if you would like practice metallic black tho Quote
nurrish Posted August 27, 2009 Author Posted August 27, 2009 i have an entire boot for sale if you would like practice metallic black tho Hmmmmmmm that would be a nonsensical move as i am selling my boot too. So i need my glass to put in my new boot Quote
nurrish Posted August 27, 2009 Author Posted August 27, 2009 bah do what i did and use lexan A quick google search suggests this is some type of flexi plastic. Did you fit it yourself? Is it strong? Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Envy car has a lexan in the rear window... Once upon a time it acted as a lovely windbrake!! But it does make sense, putting glass in a carbon boot is a bit of a false economy, but you dont want to leave it in car parks for too long.... Quote
MrLizard Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 i didnt do it myself but a decent bonding agent would suffice with it, mine isnt quite 100% waterproof either though that might have something to do with the giant holes to help the air flow Quote
nurrish Posted August 27, 2009 Author Posted August 27, 2009 Hmmmm think i shall give autoglass a call and see what they want... Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Hmmmm think i shall give autoglass a call and see what they want... Will you be selling your old boot without glass then? Quote
nurrish Posted August 27, 2009 Author Posted August 27, 2009 Hmmmm think i shall give autoglass a call and see what they want... Will you be selling your old boot without glass then? Well from what i have learnt there is not much demand for boots so i doubt it will sell with or without it... Quote
