The glass panel is not as easy as the plastic panel to replace....not suggesting that the plastic panel is easy to replace.

I'm not even sure you can replace just the glass panel if you're trying to ensure you want the defogger lines to work. In this case, you'll have to replace the whole top.

I'll bring my AP2 manual into work tomorrow and you can read through what it'd take to replace the top or top and frame.

I just need an absolute statement from one of you ppl.

Either:
You can replace the glass
or

How about if you don't get an absolute answer you can look it up in the manual I bring into the office...

If not, I can leave it at home.

BTW, you can replace the glass if you're willing to do something custom and not have a defroster.

I'm unsure that you can replace the glass panel with another OEM glass panel...that's what someone else will have to answer, or you can research on your own with my manual.
