Back windshield..wtf

Synthetic_6 · #1 10-25-2004, 11:22 AM

I have looked EVERYWHERE to try and find a back windshield and to no avail. Got smashed before I got the car. Anybody know where I can find one? It's an 88 hatch. Thanks!

id say just go to a junkyard, most glass shops will charge an arm and a leg for a custom window job..............my rear left side window got busted out on my rex and they were gonna charge over 200 to fix a window thats maybe 2ftx2ft area.................

Holy shit..that's really steep. Thanks man, guess I will just try that. Was just hoping maybe I could order a new one from someone..but it sounds like that is going to cost an arm and a leg.

yeh, if you can get the window for cheap, just get them to install it and it shouldnt be much
