Remanufactured Windshields???!!!???

Does ANYONE know of a place ANYWHERE in this fine counrty where I can have a windshield manufactured? Apparently, there isn't a single windshield around for my Z32 Convertible, so I have to have one made. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I really want to get this car back on the road ASAP.

here is a few sites that i found

http://www.glass.net/
http://www.89glass.com/
www.windshieldstogo.com
www.gmsautoglass.com

also i have a friend who does auto glass and he told me not to get the cheap types of glass because they get damaged more easily and also if you get the cheap side glass the clips that connect to the motor for the power windows breaks easily....

use one for a non vert. i think the only difference is the vert one had the diversity antenna in the glass. totally unneeded.

^ that's what I thought too...

But...

Actually, I made friends with a guy at Cindy Row and he ordered one in for the coupe / 2+2 (which are the same, if anyone needs to know that bit of info.) but it's actually a inch too short in the Width and 1/2 inch too short in the height... He told me he might be able to make it work, but he's nervous to try... He said he might be willing to try, but he would need a few hours to pull my cracked glass very carefully, as to NOT break it any more. That way if he can't make the coupe glass work, he can just reinstall my old one.


I would really just like to find a place that will make me one... My Ins co agreed to pay for it... I just have to find somewhere that will make it.

found this at courtesy parts new beta site. Dunno if you've seen this.

Heres a link ready to go in the shopping cart.

Says "Out of Stock: Product not available for immediate delivery. Generally, this product can be transferred from our regional warehouse in 2-3 business days."

I've been looking for those odds and ends for my Z and they have EVERYTHING on this new beta site, ordered some parts that said out of stock, arrived at my doorstep in a week.
