NC WTB Single Wall Top Tinted Side Glass - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Graham57a · 12-14-2017, 09:50 AM

I am looking for a factory piece of single wall top side glass for the passenger side. Not sure if both sides are the same? Glass needs to have factory tint, if I can't find just one piece I would consider buying the set to have a spare.

**Blazerowner** · 12-14-2017, 09:02 PM

I’m pretty sure the glass is the same in the double wall just a different gasket.

**DeadheadNM** · 12-14-2017, 09:59 PM

I've got both loose and the 1x wall glass is thinner - it's really thin - and GM lists differing part numbers. The glass guy I know says the thickness difference shouldn't matter and he thinks he could use 2x wall glass in my single wall top. I've chased tinted 1x wall glass unsuccessfully and may use the double wall glass......or the sliders

Double wall and single wall glass are different sizes. I have two double wall tops and a single wall.

Andrew, I use to have an extra single wall glass from a parts top I bought in Hickory. I think I may have broke it when we moved. I'll do some checking.

I looked last night I do have some double wall tinted glass I just need to make sure I have enough for my projects should know this weekend.

**1rippen6** · 12-17-2017, 07:13 PM

So I checked and I do have 2 pcs of sof-ray glass double wall glass I can spare 50 ea. plus shippng if interested.

Yea I already talked to him about them, probably gonna hold out for some single wall tinted but a double wall piece is tempting

ls1nova71 · 01-07-2018, 08:28 PM

I have a whole set of tinted glass that came with my Blazer that I'm not going to use. How do I tell if its from a double wall or single wall? Do you have a measurement of the thickness of what you need?

I personally do not know the thickness of the single wall glass, I just know it is thinner then the double wall glass. Maybe someone else can help us out on this one?

Jeff, I tired calling ECS and they are going to get back to me. They don't have anything for Blazer tops specifically but I told him it's a very simple design that they could easily make if they had control of manufacturing. I will let you guys know what they say

Thanks for the lead, they seem like a really cool company. They also have the GM Blue door vin stickers for our trucks. ECSautomotive.com

2006gmcdmax · 01-09-2018, 01:32 PM

Thanks for the update Graham57a. I need the glass too, I'm hoping they can help.

ls1nova71 · 01-10-2018, 12:15 AM

So has anyone figured out how thick the single wall glass is supposed to be? This is what I have, its less than 1/4", but the same as the door windows in my truck.

Graham57a · 01-11-2018, 02:20 PM

Just a follow up on ECS, they said they do not have a way to make the blazer top glass. They did say they would be able to date stamp a piece of glass if it was sent to them but would need a factory piece to match. Sounds like a pain, I'll just hold out for a factory piece haha

2006gmcdmax · 01-11-2018, 02:22 PM

Good to know, thank you so much for the intel.

**Joesjunk** · 01-12-2018, 07:47 PM

I have 1 piece of single wall tinted glass. It's a factory "Soft-Ray" piece. It's the thinner glass. Not sure how I would ship it though?

That’s the one I need! Not sure about shipping, maybe others have shipped glass before?

**Joesjunk** · 01-12-2018, 10:28 PM

Let me know if you have any shipping ideas

Joe what about some plywood sandwiched on either side with bubble wrap or styrofoam in the middle?
