Rear window broken

I was out at my friends house Just relaxing playing some Video Games, Since its too hot out to do the brakes in the max. Went outside to get some aleve for my massive headache due to the 90+ and humid day and I happen to look out my back window and its completely smashed, the only thing holding it together right now is the tint. I found a rock about 2x2 inches wide on my trunk lid. I can only imagine what this is going to cost me since this is my mothers winter car, and a temp car for me until I get my new one, This car only has basic coverage. Has anyone replaced the back window before without full coverage. In MA if it doesn't happen from someone else your stuck paying for the damage. Just trying to get a quote on how much I'd be shelling out to get this repaired.



All help is appreciated. Thanks

Jim

You're looking at about $400+ easily. That window has the defroster and radio antenna built in......

Edit:

I wasn't far off, CourtesyParts.com got it for $386. Obviously this is without install.

I doubt it's worth making a claim about.

My back window was the victim of a BB gun drive by. It cost me $350 to fix. I still wish I could find those kids!
