SupraTTBPU Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Hello together, my rear screen is broken, where do I get a new one ? I calles Toyota and they said to me, that it is discontinued. I just found the Lexan rear screen, but did not read positive reviews about it. Any ideas hwat to do now? Thank you in advance and have a good start in the new week Regards from Germany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 You need to pretty much wait till someone sells a tailgate with glass these days. In the UK there are companies that will make new screens so long as they have scanned a template beforehand (one was featured making a rear screen on a UK TV restoration programme, Wheeler Dealers) so there presumably are similar companies in Germany or the Netherlands where there is a strong classic car culture. I cannot imagine its cheap though but with tailgate sellers asking £1k these days that's not going to be a cheap option either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Surely must be available as a non genuine glass, same as i got a new screen for my 94 Range Rover through my insurance comp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) That's a no to that as far as I have seen. It is a bit surprising seeing Autoglass do A70 glass but nowhere is there A80 glass available any longer apart from the odd US supplier quoting prices on glass that I doubt they actually hold in stock so it'd probably be a cancelled order anyway. There are quite a few companies in the US that will make curved laminated glass screens and at least one in the UK. Though the WD crew never reveal the companies they use in their makeovers so they aren't always easy to track down. I think, from my fading memory, it was the WD episode on a Marcus that needed a new rear screen and that is a very curved screen. They needed the old one to scan though, which might be a problem for our friend in Germany.

SupraTTBPU Posted October 19, 2021 Author Share Posted October 19, 2021 Good morning I dont have my old rear screen to send for a scan. But how I read the problem is, that the screen is curved ?!
