Dumb me.  I had my glass t-tops on the top shelf of my garage cabinets.  The back panel of the cabinets broke loose and fell to the garage floor and down came the t-tops.  Needless to say, the glass broke in a thousand little pieces.
 
Does any one know if new glass can be put on and if so, suggestions for who does this kind of work.

If you are sure the frames arent bent and damaged, Id try for replacing the glass in them.  The aftermaket ones DO NOT fit like the originals.
