They get about $500 a piece for used double paned side glass. Not to mention why someone might want your "full leather" interior. Call a tow. In the grand scheme of things its really cheap. Additionally AAA will give you 100 miles of free towing on a service call.
I second this sentiment.

A V12-powered W140 is the WRONG CAR to have a mechanic throw parts at in hopes of solving a problem.

Have it towed to someone familiar w/ these cars and you will save much money and more headaches.
