I will add for those that find this thread later, I did NOT find the glass window worth the extra money when I replaced my top. I should have stuck with plastic window.

This is valuable feedback. I’m debating what to do for my top and aside from the visibility trade offs am also concerned about the service position issues. I realize people have adapted to these limitations.

A glass back window would be a nice mod... if it were the same size as the plastic window. To my eye the glass window's smaller size makes the top seem out of proportion. On the other hand, I like the stock Turbo Twist wheels and I don't mind the "fried egg" headlights, so it's all a matter of taste.
