Rockauto now has 1st gen rear quarter glass

I just noticed that Rockauto now stocks the rear quarter windows with black molding for 1st gen cars. I'm going to order one to see what it looks like.

that's good news. Hopefully GenII becomes available at some point

They have the chrome 2nd gen ones but not the black.

I hope you post it looks good after you get it. I will order both sides.

I'll post pics of it installed when it comes in. My left rear quarter window has been removed before so it just held in with the sticky butyl adhesive like a 2nd gen car.

interesting.
The molding around mine are very worn.
What is the price per side?

Good news and bad news:

Good news:

The window came in and not only is it perfect, it's an OEM Carlite part.

Now for the bad: Rockauto only can get the passenger side. The drivers side is not currently avalible and the part I received was an NOS part that has been sitting on a shelf for decades.

They still list the chrome trim ones for 1st and 2nd gen cars.

"Real" chrome, or the phony stuff that can be changed easily to black?

...only for a station wagon.
