So my driver's door slammed in the wind whilst the window was down. Now when I raise the glass it comes out of the track and will not closed. Have managed to get it back up so I can continue to use the vehicle but it looks like I need to replace the clips. The only ones I can find are in Germany for £20 a pair but with another £20 postage  Does anyone have a more reasonable source for any? 55 Plate Disco 3 HSE.

Many thanks for the links. Luckily some were listed on eBay yesterday with buy it now so managed to bag a pair cheaply. When they arrive I may well take a pattern and make something more substantial. Unfortunately not yet up with the technology of 3d printers. 55 Plate Disco 3 HSE. EGR blanked, Decat exhaust, AMK Compressor, bought 20 Dec 13.

I would be checking the rails the glass slides in, if they are fitted correct the glass should not break when the door slams shut, there should be no horizontal force on the clips, the slide rails support the glass horizontally not the clips, they only support vertically. It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

It was one of the clips which had broken, not the glass. All sorted after finding a couple of replacements cheaply on ebay 55 Plate Disco 3 HSE.
