Does anybody know the thickness of the factory glass?
I'm planning on replacing the quarter window glass with coated polycarbonate (Makrolon AR2) while retaining the factory metal frame and rubber trim. I would like to order as close to the factory thickness as possible to aid in fitment with the rubber seals.
On a side note, Makrolon AR2 is hard coated on both sides. I've read elsewhere that coated poly sheets don't suffer the same outgassing issues that regular Lexan has when trying to use tint film. I've only ever seen this done on sheets with only one hard coat. My concern is that the AR2 coating may somehow be different from traditional hard coats to compensate for the lack of an 'open' side to allow the outgassing... if anybody has any insight I would appreciate it.
