Default 02 GLASS IN AN 01 TOP?

I just bought a 01 s2k but the rear plastic window is not very clear, I was wondering if anyone knows if I can put a real glass window like the ones from a 2k2 and higher in my top. Do I need to replace the whole top to accomplish this? any info would be appreciated. Also a good place to pic up rear glass or plastic ... if need be. sorry for the newby question. I will do better next time

You need to get a whole new top. You need the mechanism from the 02+... Put the top down, or have a friend put the top down and look at what happens to the plastic windshield... Since glass can't fold, itll just break...lol The mechanism is completely different on the 02+ to accomodate the glass...

Search and you'll find info on people that have attempted it and done it to their cars...

Keep searching - there are also people that have modified the earlier frames to accomodate the glass.
