As per title, the cables in my tailgate glass have corroded to such a point that I can't open the top half of the tailgate and now have to replace the whole glass panel.

I've seen one for sale but it's a 2012, can I assume they're all the same from 2005 - 2013?

I don't know, but as the tailgates definitely changed to one piece from 2012MY I would not be surprised if the glass changed slightly then also. (But hopefully not). L405 P400e Autobiography (MY2020)... Silicon Silver / Espresso
RRS TDV6 HSE Lux (MY2011)... Nara Bronze / Arabica - now gone!

Yes they are nearly, unless it is the one piece tailgate as I have done it, the only problem is the rear spoiler mountings, the two outer one's are in a slightly different position so ideally you need the 2010 on rear spoiler and the hinges for the glass, as the spoiler mtgs. are on the hinges not the glass as the pre facelift model. It really is quite simple provided you have the 2010 hinges and spoiler.

The glass I've seen is from a 2012, mine is a 2008.

Don't think it will fit, well not a straight swap. As the tailgate was changed to a one piece from 2012MY. 2014 L405 SDV8 RR Autobiography

2012 RRS SDV6 HSE -Orkney Grey with A/B bodykit - Now Gone
2007 RRS TDV6 HSE - Zermatt Silver - Gone

If it's the fixed glass removed from a one piece tailgate then no it won't, if it's the opening glass from a split tailgate then yes it can be done. I thought it was during 2012 they changed from split to one piece but I may well be wrong as I was led to believe the one I changed came from a 2012 car.

This is the one I've seen; http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&...1924380881

Should be OK as long as you get the hinges and spoiler with it. Your best bet is to email the guy and make sure it came from a 2 piece t/gate In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures
Gone - A couple of RRS, A couple of Disco's. However thinking of another Sport.

I am intrigued to know why he has it.

Is it off his car and he has fitted a new one or ordered by mistake or what?

Seems strange to have a spare tailgate glass lying around!! 2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled

2022 HSE Dynamic P400e

2017 Discovery 3.0 HSE Silicon Silver Nimbus interior and a few extra toys SOLD

2013 HSE Black, Orkney Grey, Ebony Seats and Ivory Interior SOLD

2006 HSE

Plus a few other cars inbetween!

Yes that one will fit, when I did it about 18 months ago I fitted it to a car with the HST body kit fitted so used a Autobiography rear spoiler with a reversing camera in it and got that working via the navigation screen as well. However as I said previous you will need the hinges that go with the screen and the later spoiler otherwise simple swap. Let's you use the LED rear brake light as well. Back then the hinges from L/R were about £50.00 each. Do have the Part Numbers might even have so pictures of it all somewhere if of any use.

Hi is it me or the one in the advert looks like a Mk1 version not a 2012 as it has the red LED brake light on the top not clear underneath the spoiler?
 Current RRS 2.7 (de-badged Black) & 335i Cab for the sunny days.

Yes you are right something doesn't look right there, a pre facelift has three mountings at the top as this picture the facelift variant only has the centre one. The one advertised doesn't even appear to have that and I really can't remember if that could be removed separate or not.

Hi

Can't find any of my photos at the minute, but the part number of the hinges are LR016242 R/H and LR016244 L/H looks like they are cheaper now and that is something you don't use together very often Range Rover and Cheap. Showing at about £35.00 each probably find Dan at Duckworths could do better. That is the only part of the hinge you need. I do still have the car I modded on the drive as I did not sell it when I bought my S/C so will see if I can get a few photos later, shame you are not closer as you are welcome to come and have a look.

If you look at the two pictures you will see the difference in the black parts, the lower ones are the one's you need with the three holes.

Because I have the HST rear spoiler, I'm assuming this would affect the problem/solution?

Am I as well just buying a full facelift tailgate instead of just the glass?
