I went to a local glass shop and they said they could put my rear 
(GT) window in as well as the windscreen.  I said the windscreen was 
rather grotty so they said "no bother" and they fitted a new one.  I 
asked how come it was no problem and they said they just ordered it 
from their supplier and it came in next day !!!!  They said "no 
problem" !!  Great quality - no distortion.

Put Dum-Dum under your rubber seal and you will never get a leak
