Its very close way better then spending $1,500 to have custom glass made and no guarantee it will even fit any better

Their are a few things that stick out to me; one, the top of the glass is slightly to tall, two, the front track will have to me made at a angle some how and 3 unless you can figure out how to cut about 3" off the bottom the window will not go all the way down...

In conclusion with the few issues it does have I would like to see about having the bottom cut and the side of the glass trimmed straight. To each his own, wanna do it fine, don't fine but for the money this is worth every cent to try. Big props to Jay for noticing this ::headbang

LOL seriously? Custom glass will fit exactly as you design it, unless you dont know how to make a template of what you need.

No offence, i'm just sayin'........................ ::beers

The overall shape and size look fairly close. The problem you will encounter is the 3 areas (that I can see) that need to be trimmed. You CAN NOT cut tempered glass. Period. I tried to score then cut. Shattered. I used a wet diamong tip. Shattered. I used sand blasting. Worked good then shattered on its own. I tried water jetting. Worked then shattered on its own sitting on a bench!

Im using MM's glass and it fits the G28 window opening very well. Aside from the inch of window sticking out of the top, the glass is perfect. My advice is to find 4-5 people who are ready and commited to an order and get with Mike. Im sure if you guys are ready with the cash to cover shipping and time, Mike will help.

I remember reading about 4dr Nissan Altima rear door glass,, 2004 ish??  Basically the right rear glass goes on the G28 left side and left rear glass goes on the right side.

Sorry I can't find the posts about it right now

If you could cut it, then it would be perfect. But, everyone always says tempered glass can't be cut. If you manage to pull it off, you'd be the first.
