1990 XJS; What are these things called and are they available?

 

Sadly they are not an individual part BUT a part of #1 the window itself... On my XK8, just last week actually, the same part fell off/detached from the glass and I had to epoxy it make on... Thankfully, the old glue was still there so lining things up when glueing the part back on wasn't guess work.

What happened with yours?

 

Godzilla apparently happened to mine...

 

I believe the would be called an Isolator? At least on this side of the pond.

They are not replaceable, or they would be separate parts on the drawing.
I have a original Triplex drivers window left over from my 94 project.
Condition is like new.
Waiting to find it a new home.
Offers welcome offline please.

Would anyone happen to have a broken window that would provide two of these in usable shape?

 

I don't think I saved them but I'll check.

 

I have a few door glass laying around. Give me your zip and I can put together a price. I can probably get them off the window.

 

This may be a dumb suggestion at this point but,,, that (what in the photo) looks like the rubberized adhesive that holds the item of topic. Looks like it fell or ripped off. Are you sure that it's not down in the door somewhere or still attached to it's runner/guide. Where would it have gone? Often, if sitting down there in the bottom of the door if it fell off, or even while it's still rightly attached to the glass, they can get mucky,,, covered up and pretty well camouflaged down in the bowls and recesses of the door cavity... Just a suggestion.

 

Jay,
As suspected, the various shards and crumbs were in the driver's door abyss. Nothing big enough to be reconstituted into usable pieces. Not even enough to make a mold...
The passenger side thingies are hopefully in better shape, but that abyss is full of glass nuggets from a prior window and the current window is stuck in the "up" position.
Good Times!
John

 

I found one that survived the crash.
My guess is the other one died so I didn't save it.

Thanks to all for the info and assistance, I am all set (thanks JJJ)!

 

No worries... What did ya end up doing?

 

The items were purchased from a kind-hearted veteran member whom you know and love.

I now could use a couple of the window guide "trolleys" that are shown as part of number 8 in the above parts pic. Three roller bearings that ride in the guide, all apparently bedded in some vile kryptonite epoxy that wouldn't dissolve in several solvents, wouldn't come out by chipping/picking, wouldn't melt, wouldn't burn, and wouldn't disassemble. Buggers!
