Donor Glass

[Ryan]

Hi all. With a bit of luck and some fingers crossed my donor shell should be leaving me shortly.

I have just realised that the cars registration number is etched onto each piece of glass. What have other people done about this?

I dont want the scrappie/breakers to run it through the computer as scrapped.

Maybe this is the excuse I have been looking for to take to the windows with some kind of blunt object and get rid of some stress?

Cheers

Ryan

Go for it, you can't beat a bit of stress relief with a blunt instrument

I just took my Dremel to the glass and ground them off including sunroof and lights, it didn't take long and was proberly quicker than sweeping up broken glass off the floor over the next few days.

I stripped my car with the use of a forklift. So when I rolled it over to strip the suspension, loads of windows smashed out. What didn't get smashed first time, got harpooned with the forks when I moved the shell around.

I never thought of the glass TBH! Although I did a DVLA check on the reg recently and it comes up as SORN.

Cheers guys.

I will have a go with a dremel and see how it goes. Dont fancy sweeping all those little bits of glass!

I used a spot blaster ( Mini, hand held sand blaster )

Dremmel will do the job fine.

If you don't have either .... A flap disc in the grinder or honing stone in a hand drill will also do the job

Don't forget to wear eye protection .... Just in case
