XJ Rear tailgate glass

Postby kbushnz » Tue Jul 09, 2013 7:33 am

Ok you Jeeper's can someone tell me if the rear glass in the tailgate on the XJ is dead flat in both directions or is there a curve?
Also what are the overall dimensions.
Cheers :mrgreen:

if you want a flat piece of glass why not get it cut to your "new" template and then toughened of similar.

hmm that's got me a thinking about what i should be doing for my front screen now... :idea:
