Hi,
I checked out a 250se coupe for sale today. It has a cracked windshield. Are these available new? I can't find that info on google. That is usually a bad sign.

I bought a new windshield for a 1971 280sE coupe a few years back from the Mercedes Classic Center. Give them a try.

My coupe's windshield has a 1" crack across a bottom corner and i was scouring the web looking for a replacement. I found a aftermarket one but I never followed up on it since I was not driving the car at the time. It was about $500 at the time. Mine has the gradient tint at the top-the older ones did not. I can't remember who had it but keep searching. If you find one let us know. There are used ones out there-I bought one off Ebay a while back but it does not have the gradient tint. The seller was local and delivered it.

Yes, they are available again as brand new OEM. Use your glass deductible and insist on factory of this is an insurance replacement. Mercedes-Benz Classic Home - Parts Reproduction - Windows for W111 models
