Just bought a new one from Gunzl €250 plus €85 to have it shipped to uk. I am having a tailgate refurb and replacing mine.

The original has bowed out on the inside and has some stress freacture marks on the inner skin. Was going to keep it for spares, but would sell for £100 if you want it. Might fix up ok. Better than a holed screen?

I saw a few on German eBay but the price between that and new and getting the seller to post to uk and only seeing a few photos of condition made me bite the bullet and order from gunzl.

wow, that's a very quick response, £100 is tempting but mine is a bronze :(
expected them to be expensive, may have to save, hole only in the outside Perspex skin, at the moment I have a fish bowl, :), actually fairly entertaining when driving.

We claimed for our hightop front double-glazed window the other year - it was actually legit, since a pigeon head-butted it at 60+mph... We ordered the window itself from Gunzl, and got a local 'screen fitter to fit it. The insurance were happy with that, and paid us back for both, including the delivery from Gunzl - less, of course, the excess.

Yep, I did the same online with Gunzl, paid via paypal, inc, €21 postage, they then emailed me saying the rear window was an international freight item incurring an extra cost of €65.52.
Had to pay really.  Where else can you get one?  At least it was very well packaged and arrived safely.

If you need something big like a window from Gunzl, we've tagged them onto other orders from Germany for customers before. 

We dont order that often, probably a decent sized order about once a month, so if youre not in any rush drop us a mail at sales@brickwerks.co.uk with what you need (part numbers ideally so there are no mix ups) and we can likely save a chunk on shipping...

Received this within an hour of making my order:

Hello.

 

Tank you for your order.

The dispatch of the window can only be made with freight carrier. The shipping costs are 84,90 €.

So the rest is 65,52 € incl. fee for paying by Paypal.

I'm obviously quite pissed off if I just got overcharged £50!


I did need the window within a week, as my van was in the paint shop and window needed to be fitted by them as soon as work was complete.
