I am renovating my rusty 1984 W126 500SEL.
I removed the rear windshield glass and need to weld the rusted out frame
It had leaked water to the trunk for a long time.

I bought a new gasket 1266780120 (for the early W126) but the old glass is milky at one of the corners. It is delaminated [I think it is bad design with the integrated heating wires plus the high moisture at the lower corners].

Now I wanted to buy a better rear glass but see that used ones on ebay from a junkyard is a gamble, often unclear what you'll get

Also not cheap including shipping.

The other option would be buying aftermarket glass.

windshieldstogo.com for instance is selling a rear windshield glass for $285

Does anyone know if the aftermarket glass is laminated or tempered glass and how is the heating (fat wires on top).

What do you think is my best option?

Best, Martin
