Need Drivers Door Window Glass Replacement

[Celeste66]

My driver door window was cracked in a storm several months ago. The dealer says there is a national shortage of window glass and does not know when it will be available. I've started looking at junk yards to see if they might have one. I'm wondering if the window glass on a 2008 RX400h would fit on my 2010 RX450h?

Thank you!

Hi, Kathy.

Do you have any auto glass shops in your city? Whenever I had needed a windshield replacement, I called the local auto glass shop. They install at home or work, although with windshields it's better at home to allow for sufficient curing of the bonding elastomer.

Hello Dave, 

Thank you for responding. Unfortunately, no one has a drivers door replacement window. Everyone just keeps saying they are on backorder nationally. It's a bit unsettling driving around with a cracked window. It's not just a little crack. It extends to most of the window. I can't roll my window down. I have used packing tape to cover the crack in hopes of keeping the window from falling out. 😞

I'm not sure if you can see the crack but I've included a photo. Someone recommended I look at junk yards or used parts. I probably need to research body styles and changes to see which RXs might have a compatible glass.
