Replacing plastic with glass ?
Does anyone know how much one has to pay to replace the rear screen with glass ? or even if this is practical ??
Thanks. (My 2nd ever login and 1st ever message. Steady on now.)

Welcome Pruden. Just thought I'd say hello but I don't really know the answer to your question. I think the entire roof mechanism would be needed hence lots of cash.
Noony.

I think that......
the canvas allows a glass or plastic window (zips in? from looking at the hood) BUT the mechanism/bars etc are different and will be fixed/sewn into the canvas at different points so the folds are different.
I'm sure you could replace the plastic with glass but it'll probably break the 1st time you use it.
On this topic, is it possible to just have the plastic window replaced with a new clean one (as it appears they zip in but you'd need proper tools to do this)?? If so, how much are they? if not too bad you could just replace the plastic screen every few years if it gets too scratched.

To get the rear plastic window replaced costs about
