Four bills for that? If they are not removing it from the frame for replacement that seems pricey, it's close to the cost of a glass window top. I can't express this enough if they are repairing it on the car call a Marine canvass maker first, I would not be surprised if the cost was half.

Market pricing. $400 to replace the plastic rear window is still $600 less than a new top ($600 + $400 installation). Choose your poison.

As for a marine canvass maker, those seem hard to find in my part of LA.
