Tinted Panoramic Windows
I’m thinking of putting in a set of tinted panoramic windows in my new Defender 90 Hard Top, not sure if I should go for slide openers or fixed, Masai or Landyglass, or are they made by the same manufacturer?

I’ve seen the older post, Landyglass, http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic22833.html but I don’t see an answer to a13x’s question about the quality of Masai?

Has anyone fitted these, how easy are they to fit and do you have any pictures of the inside once fitted.

Thank you

Masai also state that their glass is manufactured in Europe.

Masai... Look terrible, and the quality even worse. That's exactly why I opted for LandyGlass.


Look at the gap between the two pieces of glass on the left of the picture... An engine to TDi for!

Yeah my own personal opinion is that they only look A+ on a black defender.

But if you tinted them you would be relying on the adhesion on the film/coating to hold the window to the motor?

Would look ace! William
