Hatch Glass 93/GS Calgary
While in downtown Calgary this evening some degenerate decided to smash the back window out of my car. WOW I hate this city! Anyhow, I know that they are not producing the rear glass for the MX-3 anymore, however I was wondering if anyone in the Calgary area would have a line on either a glass piece, or a whole hatch section. I am going to check pick-n-pull tomorrow or Monday, however if anyone knows where to find one please message me back and let me know!
And btw, hope everyone's Easter weekend is going good.

Re: Hatch Glass 93/GS Calgary
your best bet is pick n pull, if i remember correctly there's 5 there right now, 2 by the back left corner (from entrance look back) and 3 in the middle area. one of the middle ones have bad 2 piece tint job and another has broken glass where the precidia sticker is supposed to be

Re: Hatch Glass 93/GS Calgary
They do in fact still make those glass pieces. The unfortunate part is, only Mazda makes them and they are going for around $800. This happened to me last year and I ended up going through insurance since my deductible for vandalism was only $250. The whole bill for glass, installation, tinting and detailing was around $1400

Quite often wreckers will refuse to part the glass from the hatch.
Re: Hatch Glass 93/GS Calgary
They don't actually make the glasses anymore... They just have them in the warehouse... not many left but they are a stupid price. Better off to get a whole hatch, paint it, and bolt it on for a mer $50-$100!

Managed to get things worked out with my insurance, and they are paying for install of new glass, which Mazda managed to find. Apparantly only 3-4 of those rear windows left in North America. Should be fixed by mid week. Which I am sorely waiting for. My wife's kia is definitely no mazda! G

Re: Hatch Glass 93/GS Calgary
860 for the glass alone, still no idea yet yet on install, plus insurance is paying for detailing because there is still a ton of glass. I'm happy for just having to pay the deductible though. For a change insurance actually worked on my side!

Re: Hatch Glass 93/GS Calgary
maybe i should start collecting hatches and sell them in the future =P
Re: Hatch Glass 93/GS Calgary
I thought I had it bad when someone smashed my driver side window in the ikea parking lot. It cost me $230 for the window installed and $70 for tinting. Why would someone smash the back hatch glass, that sucks, I would cry because when my driver side window was smashed I was pissed. They didn't even steal much, just a couple bags of chips and a used game I bought at eb in southgate. I know how you feel though

Re: Hatch Glass 93/GS Calgary
The retarded thing is, nothing was stolen. Just smashed for the sake of of being smashed, which seriously pissed me off. Total damage was over $1200, but Insurance covered anything minus the deductible. Better than the whole shooting match, but still. Frigging retards having to go breaking other people's stuff.
