Title: C4 1990 Rear Hatch Glass
Post by: Vettech on October 06, 2023, 02:07:53 PM

Well I was feeling Better intill this morning around 10am, watching TV finishing a freshly squeezed coffee when I hear a car alarm, not just any car alarm - my car alarm. In a flash I'm out there to see whats up, my area is quiet, no cars or people wandering around, but alas the rear glass hatch window is SMASHED.

About 90% of the glass is still attatched to the plastic tinting sheet, it would appear that with wear and tear,  heat (most likely magnified by the tinting), twisting etc etc and the glass has literally exploded and dropped, but held safe of the curtain by the sides dropping onto the top of the rear guards, the glass whilst now in "safe" 5~8mm square chunks, has still scratched the paint. (and cut little fingers to ribbons)

Well ! ----- I think I need a new rear glass hatch.

WANTED

C4 1990 REAR Glass Window.

Looks like I have no other choice but to take the New Mustang to Port for our coming weekend away.
At least it wont be a Nissan or other little "rice burner".

Another Angle.
