    Glass Cutting ? Empty Glass Cutting ?

    Is it possible to cut van side glass down to fit a rear door ? I have some used side glasses that a friend needs for his rear van doors and he was told they will shatter when cut due to their age, any thoughts ? Thanks

    I suppose it’s worth a try, if it breaks, have the glass company make a new one.

    the side door and the tear doors are the same glass,
    the glass being tempered will shatter
    the fronts are laminated can be cut but i can not speak for old age glass
    i would go to a old glass shop and have laminated glass made
