Some Mdls have that thick piece you have in your photo some other Mdls have the thinner piece , there was a bit on here a few year back about this |

It appears that Autoglass are the daft ones in that they could only find the older one on their system. Newer one apparently tracked down and now waiting to come into stock.

Autoglass can be useless sometimes! In fact quite a lot of the time |

That may be an idea as their system(?) has my VIN with privacy glass from the factory (it does not). We double-checked the VIN on the phone. If you don't get stuck then you are not trying hard enough.

In all fairness to autoglass they did my screen in their workshop, all competed on time with heated screen, rain and light sensors working ok. Oem pilkington screen fitted and all put back perfectly.

They did manage to get here exactly at the time promised, just with the wrong stock. The fitter was friendly and courteous. If you don't get stuck then you are not trying hard enough.

Craig, if you have all original glass in your FF then it's probably made by Pilkington and i bet Autoglass won't put the same energy efficient Pilkington glass in so, it might be prudent to tell them you will only accept an OE part purchased from Land Rover so all the glass is the same make etc etc... (you may see a different effect at re-sale) All pre 06 models have the large black aluminium extrusion, all post 06 models don't hence your 07 not having it... Craig ![]() |

Thanks for this info. I'll give them a call tomorrow to check which unit they are attempting to supply. If you don't get stuck then you are not trying hard enough.

I had the issue with Pilkington vs Land Rover glass, yes they are both made by the same company in fact you could even see the original Land Rover Logo that had been etched out and replaced with the Pilkington logo BUT the Pilkington glass fitted to mine didn't have the connection for the TMC amp so no TMC on the sat Nav until they came out again with the correct glass from Land Rover with the correct fittings and the correct logo |

Thanks Andy, they have assured me they are putting in OEM glass but we'll see on Friday afternoon. I will not hesitate in sending this one back too if necessary.
