It is the full glass panel with the heating element bonded in, so it replaces a cracked, crazed or delaminating original outright rather than patching it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck the year before you order. This is the early glass. Land Rover changed the rear end door part way through production, and vehicles built after 1988 take a different window, so a 1994 Defender is not a candidate for this one. If your Rover is newer than 1988, this is not the glass you want.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWorth knowing if you are shopping by name. The vehicles this fits were sold as the Ninety and the One Ten when they were new. Land Rover only adopted the Defender name in 1990, so an early Ninety and a Defender 90 are the same vehicle under two badges, and both are what this glass is for.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rear door glass takes more abuse than any other window on one of these. It sits on the panel that swings open every time something goes in the back, it carries the weight of the spare wheel on the door with it, and it lives directly in the spray coming off the rear tires. Chips turn into cracks, and a cracked tailgate window is not something you drive around with for long.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is toughened glass rather than laminated, E marked and DOT marked, so it is road legal in both the UK and the United States. The tint is clear and the thickness is 5mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heating element is the reason to buy this version rather than a plain pane. A Rover with no rear demist is one you reverse by mirror in cold weather, and the element in this glass connects to the factory wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFitting is a job for someone who has done bonded or rubber set glass before. The seal, the finishing trim and the heater connections all need to be right or the door leaks, and these rear doors are unforgiving about water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this fit my 1990s Defender?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. This is the early glass for vehicles built up to 1988.
