This is what I think i know.You will save aprox 90 lbs if you replace all the glass. (coast about a grand) Is it worh it? No!- cool Facter Yes! If you replace just the rear you save about 12 lbs depending on what thickness you use.
Lots of venders will till you that the rear window is hvy. Is not, about 17 lbs.
I just went thrue all this ,,made my own lexan rear......to do over I would spend the $$ and have them all made....Done right they will not leak,do let more noise in, and you might have to put straps on the rear window.....Really more of a ego trip I will freely admit...but I am looseing wt!
