Hi,
I have the window as well if you still need it, but I'll be a few weeks before I can ship it. Email me for details. I think we may have spoken before about it
Thanks
Michael

That is just a flat glass, there must be some auto glass shops in Quebec that can cut you a new glass, using the driver's side window as a pattern if necessary.  I had a complete set of glass made for a 1950 Jaguar sedan restoration at my local auto glass shop using the old, scratched, yellowed original glass as a pattern.

Good idea, maybe i can contact my local auto glass shop.. i asked them to find me a glass but they where unable to find it (except for the windshield) i didnt know that is possible to cut the glass to custom specification.

Absolutely possible, they do it all the time.  Only PIA will be taking out the driver's side glass so they can copy it if you don't already have a pattern for the passenger side.

Thanks for the advice you give me, i have visit my local glass shop with my windows from the other side of the car and they make a windows perfectly similar! And it has the exact same green tint, so its a perfect fit for a small cost! (you can see the atached picture of old and new windows side by side)

Thanks again for that advice!
