Rusty rear window frame

:roll: Hello Dub people!!!

Just had new hood fitted (fab) and rear window frame so rusty (not so fab) ive been told i need a new frame and seal!! You would think the fitters would check out the state of it before they start the work. Im now trying to find the cheapest way of replacing it. Is it at all possible to just find a frame as theres nothing wrong with my glass!!! On top of that ive been told by them that i ll have to get Autoglass or someone similar to put it in!!!
Not amused…..Please could anyone advise me?

Almost skint and giving up…….

So they fitted it and left the back uncut?

Never mind funk-star has a Cab he's ripping apart and so does Marshy. Don't know what condition the hoods or windows are in though.

One here on ebay that's not a million miles away.

Cheers. No they fitted it then told me it would leak more than it did before as its so rusty and previous owner had put bloody mastik all round it so the bloke said when he removes it all the rust will fall out-and it did!
Gutted! Got a spanking new roof and a warped, wet parcel shelf!
