Where can I get my rear hatch window replaced?
I think I need to replace it anyways,
One of the connectors for the defroster got ripped off on the metal last year and I used some silver conductive epoxy, which worked for a while, but it does not work anymore. It isn't really solderable and I managed to tear off more metal today when I tried to remove the old epoxy. So I guess what I'm getting at is, where is a good place I can get the window replaced? I checked out some of the old threads on here where people had windows replaced but they are all 3+ years old so i figured it couldn't hurt to make a new one. I'll get some pictures of the connector tomorrow I know I didn't give the best explanation :lol: |
A new piece of glass is probably going to be pricey. You can get replacement bits for just about everything involved with a rear defrost from tabs to foil and paint/glue. Google search
Otherwise, just call around and get your best cash price. Smaller shops often have better deals than the large ones. |
The price to replace my rear glass in the Forester was about $180 through Briteglass IIRC. This was early 2010. A WRX should be similar.

Dean I think I've completely ruined the electric piece/wiring/tab on the actual window :lol: I might as well just get it all replaced. Can most places make it basically OEM?.... I guess I need to call around haha
Thanks for the help guys! |
Oops forgot about this, sorry guys haha. I got quoted 530 from glass pros, fast glass, and briteglass.....:| I cut off the clip and stripped the rubber off the wire and re-epoxied it and it worked. (For now at least :lol:)
