the plastic rear window replaced? I'm going to get
some prices next week. Got a rip/crack right in the middle of the yellowed plastic. Looks awesome. ;o( Just curious as to the average price.

the thing you have to keep in mind when just replacing the plastic window in the top is how old the top is in the first place. at that point, you will have a new window in an older top. with all of the moving parts in a top that may fail as they age, i'd suggest replacing the entire top. that was my mindset when i did it a few years ago (car since been sold).
