Good luck. David Oliver and I dropped mine my freshman year and shattered the glass and I haven't found a place to get one yet. If you find something let me know...

You could have one cut out of safety glass at about any glass shop. For house stuff there was a place on rock prairie with the best prices, not rememberin the name.

What about Lexan? I'm sure ACME Glass can order a new one. They got one for my Range Rover in about a week. Wasn't cheap though, but hey it's a RR, what do you expect. That's why I got a $50 comprehensive deductable on my POS!

my friend from baylor's dad owns a couple of glass companies, and he told me that he could get a piece of glass made for it if he had a template, but that he figured it would be about $200 bucks. I was going to give some places around here a call first and see, but as a last resort I could make a template out of cardboard and send it to him. They can cut all the holes for it, they just need a template for the shape of the glass, and placement of the holes

looks like getting one made is the cheapest option. I finally found a replacemtn today, and they wanted almost 500 bucks :flipoff3: all you have to do to get one made is just make a template and send it off to a company that makes tempered glass windows.

what year model do you have, cause I am going to get my friend to help me make one, he makes templates for custome glass showers and things, can't be to much different. if it is the same you could just use it to order you a piece of glass or whatever other material you wan't it made out of.
