Hardtop Replacement Liftgate Glass


Well me being an idiot broke the glass for my 2012 JK rear hardtop. I am having difficulty locating the replacement glass, does anybody know where it can be purchased and if I have to replace the entire thing (hinges, trim, etc) or if I can just replace the glass part.

well, the first place to check that can do it for sure is the stealership, its also the most expensive. if you have alot of scrap yards in the area and they have jeeps with hardtops from the right year, you can possibly get a cheap replacement that way. I have no idea if parts stores would be able to order the hard tops glass rear window, but obviously by all means stop in and check with them too. If you wont miss defrosters, you can easily get a cheap sheet of plexi and mock it up and dremel it to shape, adding on the weather stripping from the broken one with some 3m adhesive.

I'm looking for the same piece of glass for my 2012. One of the forum members has one for sale but he's in CA and I'm in FL. The shipping was pretty expensive.

I broke mine earlier this summer. Dealer wanted 950+ installed. Called All-star auto glass replacement (could be any third party glass vendor) and they wanted 650. Finally I was able to call in a favor to a glass guy I know and got it done for 375 installed. I looked everywhere and couldn't find a replacement. Don't know why it was so hard.
