Best guess 10 kg.

Did I not see that you had one off the car already. Just stick it on the bathroom scales.

Hi

is it to get a courier quote? if so you may want to try http://www.shiply.com/ a weight estimate will be fine and as you also post a picture they know what to expect.

If its not for a courier ignore what I have just posted Laughing

It'd be lighter to post without the glass in, if all you need is the tailgate itself, but budget on a new rubber seal and a fiddle swapping the glass over from your old panel....

With bathroom scales, there is a trick you can do. Stand on you scales and read the weight. Next stand on the scales holding the tail gate. Take one away from the other and you have the weight of the tail gate. Unfortunately , this will not work for people that are over weight....
