Talking I'm looking for some import glass!

Hello I'm looking for the 2000 Toyota harrier glass and was wondering where could I look in order to find this glass for my rx300 because I hate having this reflective glass.

Any positive feed back is much appreciated

The "mirrored" glazing is not a country specific item. To my knowledge, all 99-03 RX300/Harriers have the mirrored glass. If you notice, the etched markings on your windows even say TOYOTA and not LEXUS.

Here is a photo of a 2000 RHD Toyota Harrier, with the same glass.

Well those carproof or carfax, only list repairs that were made from insurance claims.....I know a chick that tried to off road a BMW Z8, and then paid the $8,000 repairs out of pocket so she would not take a hit on the carfax. Her report was clean too.

Anyway, I have a 2000 RX, and the glass says TOYOTA.....weird!

it might depend on where it was built...I think i remember LexMex saying he saw harriers with non tinted glass in other countries. I believe they were just for the US market. In fact I think I remember seeing pictures. However importing glass is probably so expensive you might as well buy another car as I am planning to do in the next year or so.

Could be....but every photo I've seen of the Japanese Harriers, have the tinted windows. You may be able to find aftermarket glass that is non-tinted....but I can imagine the cost for 7 new windows will be extremely high.
