Default rear window glass question??

1. is the 99-00 FRC rear window the same as the 01-04 Z06 and if not will it fit the Z06?

2. are they still available and if so where from and how much?

3. if not available how much does a used one go for?
Thanks

I've got one available here in CT, with a complete roof in needed

The Z06 is a 99/00 FRC body with a better cam($100) and heads($400), LS6 intake also, but that's standard on ALL 2001up C5's, the suspension is within 10-15% of the Z specs.

In reality the FRC/Z06 is the convertible with the hardtop in place.

ALL C5 fenders/doors/hoods/front.rear covers are the SAME.
ALL C5 vert/FRC/Z06 rear quarters and trunk lids are the SAME.
Yes, the Z16 has a carbon hood(2004)
Yes, the Z06 uses a 4.6mm windshiled(2001-2004)

Almost $3000 new. See #12 here:

A good used one would save you a bundle, unless it's an insurance claim and they'll pay for new.

From everything I have read the Z06 also has a thinner rear glass as well. I have never had them on a scale to compare personally, but have seen this is several places.

They are the same otherwise and either rear glass should fit in either car.
