I have a pair of L&R door windows, behind the garage original windows from my old 96 doors, when I put the ones from the junkyard on it those doors already came w/ good glass
but IL is too far from Okla.

Safelite got some for my 1988 back when I had a compressed air duster can explode and take out my passenger side window. You might want to check with them.

Suggestion: Grab a Dorman 45284 ( https://www.dormanproducts.com/p-115...ide&origin=YMM ) to take with you.

Or order a package anyway; the originals will be too old to remove and reinstall, and will not last well in the transition, I bet.

Yeah, you're right about that-on my fixed income, I sure can't buy a new one at 200 dollars!

A search turned up some on eBay. They were around $90 shipped give or take 20. I saw one for $40 but that was plus shipping which I suspect might be up near 90 again.

Don't forget to hit up car-part.com or hollanderparts.com - they're wrecking yard aggregators, so there may be one within easy driving distance that has a window for $35 or so. Or $75 or so ... kind of depends.
