I was in a local custom upholstery shop a few weeks ago, and there was a Box in the shop for a new plastic rear window. I asked the shop owner what the price was for a new rear window in a Boxster, and he said about $700, because you have to remove the top from the frame to sew in the new window.
Did my guy not know what he was doing (possible, but he's been in business in the same shop for about 25yrs that I know of), or are we talking about a different process, i.e. sewn in vs heat sealed , etc?
