Where can I buy the forward hatch glass for a 97 25zx? I am assuming this is not a Donzi specific item...

Not sure who made the hatch for your boat, but Bomar is a big OEM supplier for many boats and they sell replacement parts direct.

This might help you determine if it's a Bomar part:

I took the frame to the local glass shop and they cut a new piece to fit. $50.

+1 then bed it with color of choice with quick cure 4200, you may need to weight it down into the frame if it has a curve. 4200 allows reasonable removal down the road the quick cure sets up in about 24 hours, the slow cure takes 7 days.

I think Zelatore is correct, if memory serves, it's this type:

Bomar doesn't use glass, it's a plexi or acrylic. On the 1997 was it still black glass, or white? a nice upgrade may be to update the look to white if it isn't already.

Thanks for all the input guys! I was about to drop 400 on a new piece...some white poly or acrylic sounds much better! Were is a good source?

Your local glass shop should have sheets of acrylic in stock. The white may be a little hard to find. I used the smoked color to match the front wind screen.
