You can't replace just the window, but you can put a new top on that has the glass window. The tops come with everything you need. The only thing different (in my kit) was 2 extra straps to help put the top down properly so the glass closes right.

Here's the model you need for your year ~ http://tinyurl.com/233ldyv

So just change the top with window, but the mechanism is the same?

To use a glass window top on an early plastic window frame requires modification with straps. In addition, the top is not an exact fit. The main non-moveable bar is molded differently.

Best thing to do is find a 02-09 frame and top complete. Better fit, and less than half the labor to install.
