Default Important Glass Question!

My crazy now ex-girlfriend(I'm pretty sure she did it, but anyway...) smashed the windshield and passenger door window on my car.

I just need to know if the door glass from an 87+ will work in my 86. I can get one from an 87+ but if it won't work I'll just have to buy one...

Yes, it should work just fine. As long as the one you are using to replace that isn't from a vert. That sucks though man. Sounds like a crazy b*tch has an *** whoopin comming[:@].

I had a crazy ex that I thought was stalking me too.. Turns out I was right.

GARAGE FTW! Mustang was untouched...

Well it was in her garage and I came the morning after the break up to move it and found it like that. Called cops without even talking to her...she's getting charged and I already got $400 from her...

I work at a body shop and had our manager write an estimate for replacing the glass and glass clean up. The windshield was busted so hard it got into the defrost vents...estimate was just shy of $900.

Do the clean up yourself, just use an air compressor and blow out the vent. I do auto glass fo a living and if you called my shop I could do both for $35o and if you brought it to the shop I could blow the vents out, but 79-93 hatch and notches that are non t-top have same door glass

That's what I had planned. I can do everything but the windshield.

At least she didn't break the hood or dent any other body pieces. That would have been expensive and I prolly would shoot the b*tch if that was to happen to my 83 lol. (not really but still she would be hurting!)
