Are Disco 1 and 2 rear door windows the same?

yfo866 · May 24, 2019

I've just bought an ex commercial which a previous owner has very nicely converted to a full leather interior, including electric heated front seats.
Both rear door quarter lights are cracked. I could put up with that but the windows are so dark you can't see through them so I want to change to 'normal' dark tinted windows like the back door.
I have access to a pair of free rear doors from which I could remove the glass, tint and then put into my doors.
Does anybody know if the glass is the same size on the Disco 1 and 2?

D1 and D2 are different lengths, so i'd say No..

I may be wrong but I think the added length is at the rear, after the doors?

As they are not the front windscreen, I think you may just be able to get laminated glass cut and then fit it, give the glass cutter the old glass as a template. Works for Kit Cars. And may even be cheaper.

I have replaced a d1 rear window (ie boot door glass) with glass from a d2. It fits perfect. Body panel wise the doors dont interchange; we found this out after several hrs trying haha. But the glass fitted fine into the old d1 rubber and door. Sorted

Forgot to conclude, the boot door glass is the only one that is interchangeable between D1 and D2.

Thanks for that. I'll keep an eye out for a pair of rear doors in my colour.

Think outside, no box required.
