As the title says really.

Some toe rag smashed in virtually all the windows on my 109 station wagon so I am trying to repair as cheaply as possible (and with less glass in future).

I've been reading this thread in the Defender section where the owner replaces his rear windows with side panels from an 88" Series III on his 110.

I was thinking of doing this, but wondered if anyone on here had done it with a 109?  And whether the panels from an 88" will fit a 109?  Is it a straightswap over or is there some cutting involved?

TIA for any help or suggestions.


Anything that is broken can be fixed.  Er, I'm talking mechanical here.

I would have thought that you wouldn't have a problem fitting 88" sides onto your Landy as it appears to be a 110 from the picture.

Push button door handles, wind down windows, wheel arch 'spats' and also a tall windscreen!
