I got a replacement glass for mine from my local main dealer.
Not cheap, but there the following day. They're still current
fitment to military Landies, so you shouldn't have a problem
getting one. Blanchards etc. might be cheaper, but by the time
you've paid carriage and taken delivery time into account there
might not be much in it.

If you go the Plant glazing route he will probably use laminated
glass. Illegal to fit to a side window and to be honest you
don't really want it in there. If you ever find yourself in a
position where you need to smash the window to get out of your
vehicle (accident, in water etc) you immediately realize why its
illegal to fit it...... wagfinger Stick with toughened ;-)

Immaterial really. No fucker could get through a gap that small.
I would be more concerned about the hole for the plastic catch.
