Smile Rear Window Replaced for less than $100.00!

With the help of the local auto upholstry shop, I sucessfully replaced my rear
plastic widow in my 01' Boxster S. Total cost of less than $100.00! That
includes the shop fee of $20.00 to sew in the new window. I am thinking about putting together a kit for people to do it themselves and avoid the high cost that some of these places want to charge. If you are interested, send me a PM or an e-mail.

Just FYI: You can already do this with the kit sold on eBay.

My guess is that Hes already got several kits ready to sell, a company name and a paypal account setup for that. Probably just a Vendor that doesnt want to pay for ad-space.

This kit:

Has been around for a while, but not many shops will install it for under $100.00! Not sure how that's possible since it takes up to 3hrs.

I am not a vendor... I am actually a paramedic in southwest florida. Just found a cheap way to get around paying someone to do something you can do yourself quite easily and cheaper. and... i don't have kits ready to go or a paypal account...
