Where is my best source?

Or can I remove the existing cracked but functioning window and have it locally cut somewhere?

I think I heard that the quarter glass is the same on both sides, is that correct?

Any good glass shop can supply the glass. The "Bugs" are available from Third Generation Automotive. Both sides are the same.

Bugs?

The "Bugs" are the Ford oval and date code that is etched in the original glass.

Pay close attention as where the glass sits in the channel. If new glass is not exactly positioned as the old, problems will arise when installed to regulator.

This could be an issue. the glass on the drivers side is currently "floating" in the door.

So buying 1 bug would let me etch all the glass? or one per etching?

Call the vendor who sells the "bugs", but most likely you need to use one "bug" per glass.
