CR Laurence duo-pane rear windows almost gone?

[ghetdjc320]

It looks like CR Laurence no longer carries the rear sliding duo pane window. There are exactly 6 left in stock with DK Hardware. There were 12 about a week ago. Just picked one up myself as well. If anyone knows of anyone else who has any inventory left let me know. Otherwise, it looks like remaining stock is about done for.

Amazon says they have 7 in stock..... I have one that Amazon says is out for delivery today but the FedEx number doesn't show it.

I believe it’s all from the same supplier. They had 7 and I just got one. 

[ghetdjc320]

Yep, just confirmed. DK hardware is the only vendor that has remaining stock listed. They sell on eBay, Amazon and direct on their site. Same price everywhere it seems like. 6 left now on amazon as well.

5 now. Had to do it.

I just bought one for my Comanche last this week, the glass guy that ordered it for me said they are getting gone quick.

You know what’s bad. My latch assembly broke for my 4 pane. Spent about 15 min finding it on CR Lawrence’s website. Ordered one. Got it. Went back to order another one just in case. None left. Course that could’ve been shear coincidence at the time.

That's the only source left it would seem. They are on amazon and ebay also. All from the same source

Yikes, the rear window market is about to get pricey.

I was lucky and found someone with a cr Lawrence 3 pane slider that I have tucked away. Guess I won't sell it after all lol

I just followed the link provided by ghetdjc320.  It showed the window, but when I went to 'proceed to checkout' I couldn't make the page take any of my information.  Click on the name field, it puts the cursor there but won't show any characters I type.

Then I went to both ebay and amazon and the windows didn't show up when I searched for them.

 

Two weeks ago someone nearby posted one on Craigslist for $80.  I sent four messages but couldn't get the poster to reply.  BTW, according to his post he had just totalled his Comanche, so there's one less out there.

this all goes to emphasize a truly important MJ rule... don't ever hesitate when you see something for sale that you think you want.  there are no guarantees that it'll be made next year.  normally I apply this to low production items like 3d printed stuff, but this is the same window I bought for my 88 back in 97, and even it seems to be going away. 

 

dang.

Here is the link I used to buy from: https://www.ebay.com/itm/251292055111?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908105057%26meid%3D587dd04d991a46b1bece7b880623bf1c%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D15%26sd%3D251292055111%26itm%3D251292055111%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2380057&_trksid=p2380057.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3A202dbffd-b7b7-11ec-a532-466f93be4652|parentrq%3A0c6ad1ce1800a9b13e11c9bcfffe5b20|iid%3A1

Mine (CR Lawrence from DK Hardware from Amazon) is arriving tomorrow....... Glad I decided to order.

[89 MJ]

I’m glad I pulled mine from my parts truck. Not going to lie, I forgot I had it until this morning, but now I’m glad that I do. 

[Pete M]

I contacted CRL and they got back with me,

Hi there we still carry 1986 to 92 Jeep Comanche Solar windows. Please view link below: https://www.crlaurence.com/crlapps/showline/offerpage.aspx?ProductID=87862&GroupID=1653&History=30587:21770:1351:1389:1651:1389&ModelID=1653&pom=0

 

but I didn't quite get the answer I wanted (sounds very generic, as if the guy just searched their own site and passed on the link without verifying anything) so I've replied with "do you have stock on hand?".  waiting on a response.

[DirtyComanche]

I was hoping to find a used one but I'm not taking that chance.  So I guess that's one less now.

 

 

 

They'll probably wind up looking at the sudden influx of orders and do another run.

[Pete M]

the guy gave me a link to DK site so I guess I'll fire off a question to them. 

[Pete M]

heard back from DK that they are simply on backorder. 

[JimiGibbs]

Great to hear..... Mine arrived today.

 

[Pete M]

backordered to June 13th

[ghetdjc320]

Good to know! Mine shipped yesterday
