i have a phase 3 tailgate (and a phase 3 spoiler to match)

Generic image:-


say i wanted to smash the glass to repsray the tailgate properly

do i need some sort of seal from Peugeot?

i have checked my VIN in the service box but i think my car originally had a phase 2 tailgate with the bigger rubber bit that shows (and takes a phase 2 spoiler)
and the black strip down the bottom of the tailgate

generic phase 1/2 tailgate picture

I think day666 can supply the glass if needed.

I've just been dealing with this issue as I want to get my tailgate sorted. Some recent info on this here (including source for new non-OE rear window glass):

http://www.306gti6.com/forum/showthread.php?id=162940&page=2#28

The OEM glass is NFP but I got one from Belgium. I know of another one that was offered to me after I'd ordered mine and I can pass you the details of the dealer in Belgium who has it.

As far as the 'seal' goes for a P3 tailgate, a 'tailgate glass moulding' part no 8745 48 is shown on servicebox as needed for my VIN (which has always had a P3 tailgate). The part quoted for my P3 tailgate was about £100 from the dealer. I didn't order it in the end as the parts guy said the glass installer should have the kit to install a rear window correctly. I change my mind every time I think about it and may end up ordering it anyway.

I've got a new rear window and am picking up a second hand tailgate next week which I will get painted up nicely and the new glass installed. I'll talk to the glass installer before I do anything. I did want to remove my glass and reinstall it on the new tailgate but, while that is possible, the last glass guy I spoke to said the tabs for the rear window element wiring nearly always break off when removing it, so better to have a new piece of glass to hand.

Autoglass might still have some kicking around, best to give them a call.

I used http://www.interparcel.com/ to get the glass over here from Belgium after finding a recommendation on here for them from Welshpug and they were excellent and the price was quite reasonable.
