Glass advice

After some unfortunate vandalism

Unfortunately someone took a dislike to my car and smashed the windows.  Could someone better informed than me-everyone :$ give some pointers as to what my options are?  I need glass on the drivers side front and back, passenger side back and the rear screen :ocf_emoticons__BangHead:Which parts can be got and which are more difficult? Are there any affordable reproductions? can you get them made? and how many kidneys would I be left with?

Any pointers you can give would be very much appreciated to help bail me out of this particular mess…..rubbish time to happen with it being January and with a baby's imminent arrival…devastatedly annoying….the vandalism not the baby :thumbs:

You'd be best to find some local as it's not a good thing to send through our postal system! Best bet is to get a 'wanted' ad up for a used set on here.  :thumbs:

By the way is yours a cabby or tin top and is the glass clear, or tinted (green usually but there's bronze out there too). If your not 100% sure go look at your remaining windows and if its tinted it'll say so on the small kite mark area printed on the glass.

Thanks very much for your reply.

I am pretty sure it is clear, I will put up a wanted ad, cheers..but being in Northern Ireland might be an extra pain.  

I realise a 2nd hand set would be ideal, any idea what the going rate is (it is a 3 door tintop)…is it possible to get them made or is that stupidly expensive?  Never even broken a window before and now I have several  :o

Is it green tint glass or clear?  I have a full set of clear glass (without windscreen) available and I am coming over to N.I. in mid-march if that is any help.  :)
