Door glass

[olihofmann]

Hi
Can anybody tell me if the door glass of a FHC and a Convertible 350i are the same?
If not has anybody some door glass for a FHC for sale?
Thanks
Oli

Anybody?
How good do the side windows usually fit into the door frames of the FHC?
I have a cap of about 10mm, is this normal?
Thanks for any help

Sorry - don't know but I do know that PH user Phil_520D runs a nationwide windscreen company and had some made - so worth searching out his contact details.

Pretty sure they are the same, TVR wouldn't have bu99ered about changing anything they didn't need to.

There is a bicycle handbrake cable affair that limits the upper limit of the window glass,it might be snagged or incorectly adjusted.
It attaches to the bottom corner of the door and the other end is secured on the window motor sector gear.

I think the FHC uses the window frame to stop the motor rather than the bicycle cable in the drop heads.

The windows are the same as far as I know (I'll find out when I need to replace one myself). Beware that the frames do rust and can easily bend out of true.

Door shape FHC is not equal to the convertible, but the window could still be the same. Best bet (I think) would be to contact Phil as mentioned before.
