Replacing Door Window

[Anfieldranger]

Can anyone tell me if there are different shades of tint fitted as standard on the 2004 RX300?

I'm having to replace the off-side front door glass and am considering a second hand part from a breaker as there is a considerable cost saving.

But i'm concerned the replacement may be a different shade of tint?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello and welcome to the LOC.

I have looked up your model on Toyodiy.com and according to this there is only one type of tint for your Lexus.

Part number is 68101-48070 described as Window Front Right Hand side, UV( Ultraviolet) Cut, Tinted,Tempered Glass,T= 5.0 GREEN.

So if your window has a green tint the replacement should be the same. The glass may also have the above part number stamped on it which would confirm the correct type, if different shades are available the part number is normally followed by a colour code consisting of 2 extra letters/numbers but as there is no mention of this it would seem to confirm only one type is available.

Cost at Lexus is around £100.00 so I hope the saving is significant for you but if you have fully comprehensive insurance window glass is normally covered under the policy with a nominal excess. A claim will generally not affect your NCD.
