Toyota Land Cruiser Series 75 & 78 – gullwing window glass (rear side)

A gullwing window in dark-tinted safety glass, tailored for the rear panel of the Toyota Land Cruiser 75 or 78 Series. It replaces the factory rear side window and offers quick, unobstructed access to gear, storage, or recovery equipment via an upward-opening hatch.

Installation requires no body modifications. Only the outer flange — where the original glass was seated — needs to be flattened for a proper seal. Once installed, the unit blends cleanly with the vehicle’s body, maintaining an OEM-style appearance.

All accessories are engineered specifically for Explore Glazing gullwing windows and are not compatible with factory or third-party systems.

Installation

The gullwing window is installed in place of the original rear side window. The flange of the body where the factory glass was installed is slightly curved and must be flattened to ensure a reliable and even seal. The inner and outer body panels are spot-welded, which may cause slight variation in window cut-out dimensions. Carefully centre the window before fastening.

The window is sealed with a closed-cell neoprene foam insert and fixed using stainless steel M4×20 screws and adhesive. No cutting or welding required. Supplied fully preassembled.

A mounting kit is available on request and includes:

• Ø 4.2 mm drill bit
• Cartridge of Dowsil 791
• Application brush
• Sealant finishing rubber tool

Black powder-coated stainless screws are available as an option and are quoted by default.

Installation should be carried out with care. Incorrect mounting can lead to leaks or improper alignment. Assembly videos can be found on the Explore Glazing YouTube channel.
