    Price for a new rear glass?

    How much are they new? I am tired of not having a working rear defroster, and most used ones are bad as is.

    I tried safelite, but they quote with install. I can install it myself.

      Do you have to cut the sub-frame to install rear glass? :)

      No really - what's up with the different colors?

          Factory Tints. They had three different style tints for all glasses. Green, bronze (brown), and clear. There's a fourth style glass for the front windscreen, it's clear but with a green shade band on top. It's pretty rare to find used factory tinted glass.

            The green glass is so horn. I'd never run tints.
