Default replacing rear window?

Well i have found a s2000 now but there seems to be a tear in the rear plastic window... was wondering if anyone knew how much it would cost to replace it with glass or even new plastic..??

thanks..

$2500-3000 through Honda. Although I've heard talk of just replacing the plastic and that should be cheaper.

You can get an aftermarket roof and glass window from the US for about $1000 and then have it fitted.

Or just take it to an upholsterer and have a the plastic replaced.

its about $2500, depending on whether u want glass or plastic, but figure around that price.
my advice is to look for another s2000, or tell teh seller to take off $3k from the price as that should be enough to compensate u for the time and effort in fixing it urself. otherwise tell him to fix it and pay full price
