The price of parts. Where do you draw the line?

[FleetsidePaul]

I FINALLY found the rear glass for my Plymouth. That's the good news.

The bad news is the price. $395 for the glass, $85 to crate it, and shipping undetermined at this point. But with shipping charges being what the are today that's going to be one expensive piece of glass. Plus the cost of installation because I'm not doing it because auto glass and I do not get along.

I really don't think that the guy is too far out of line on his price. I just spent
$275 on a new windshield for my Jeep and those are a dime a dozen. This is a tough part to find. But all the associated costs are going to drive the price up more.

So I think. How much is too much? Do I just bite the bullet. It's not like these windows are just falling out of sky. Custom glass guys have told me no. They don't want to do it. They can but they wont. Like many women I've known.

I'll probably just go ahead and do it. I'm not going to find another one anytime soon. I guess my line in the sand just got pushed back a little.
