my back window is broken! shattered actually (see pic). :/

just wondering if anyone ever replaced theirs and how much it cost (parts + install)? my first quote i got earlier tonight was $380. i'll make few more calls tomorrow.

also if there's anything i need to be concerned about pre and post-install. thanks in advance!

my deductible is $500... so i don't think i'd be going through my insurance on this. :/

If its anything like windshield glass, there are different qualities of glass. if you can get glass from subaru it should be original quality, although I have heard of dealerships that will source glass from the aftermarket because the oem glass is expensive. When I replaced the windshield in my honda I went with a local shop that used PPG glass which is considered to be good quality and oem thickness. the rear panel may not be as important with regards to safety, but putting a thinner windshield in reduces the amount of weight the roof of the vehicle can support which is important in a roll over. also the proper removal of the old sealant is important. Im pretty sure this is the most common mistake is the installer fails to remove all of the old sealant. The sealant itself is also important, I know a top brand would be sika in this regard. I cant help with price but I know the shop I chose was maybe 20% more than the others but guaranteed the brand of glass and gave a good warranty.

thanks philosophical! i'll make sure to watch how the mobile tech do the sealants.

here are other installed qoutes i got:

$318 - Safelite, mobile, mixed reviews but very professional in handling everything pre-install. we'll see after the work is done. installation is TODAY that's why i chose them. hopefully i won't regret it. ~~~ it was getting late in the afternoon and they never called so i cancelled.

$325 - local, mobile, all 5 star yelp reviews. tomorrow's the earliest install ~ i guess i could have went with this one but i was dead set on having it installed today.

$410!?! - enough said! local

edit: found a cheaper price $265 installed and went with them. we'll see how it holds up.
