Damn....I bet it was some Honda owner you beat in a race....losers. They're just jealous of the VQ.

I'm going to ask around here to see if I can get some info for you. Don't worry Jon....it'll all work out.

At least you're safe brotherrrrr.

Are you talking about the window on the rear door or the small, little vent window? I know the window on the door is real easy to replace. It's only held by a few bolts. As far as the vent and the rear window, take it to a specialized auto glass shop. Like someone mentioned before, report it to your insurance company.

That's NJ for you....

Get an estimate before you go to the insurance. I might be wrong, but I think your full deductable applies to side and rear windows so you'll probably pay out of pocket anyway. Best if your insurance doesn't know about it.

yeah i don't think the deductable will be enough to cover for it unless you got like $200 dollars deductable. Progressive quote me at around 150 for the 2 back windows, passenger windows. I think you can get it cheaper elsewhere. I got my windshield, back and front, and 2 windows done for 800, so check around.

Call your insurance company and have Safelite come and fix it wherever you are.

if youre deductible is $500, then you have 2 windows at $150ish and labor to install them...


it not worth filing a claim for a check for $43.72
