About $500ish. More if you're not around a metropolitan city. Check the big websites...

www.safelite.com
www.89glass.com
www.glassdoctor.com

Your insurance may have a glass coverage policy as well. Check if you bought that.

I think they quoted $800 ish when mine was replaced 2 years ago. Noone else made the glass at that time and the shop had to get it from Honda.

Insurance covered mine after the $250 deductable.

Crazy thing.... small rock entered the open sun roof and hit the back glass and it shattered. It sounded like a gun shot, and scared the crap out of me. Thank god for tint.

If you are having insurance pay for it, get the OEM Acura glass. I made the mistake years ago of getting a 3rd party window installed on my then Supra, even though I was filing an insurance claim. That window was not identical to the original windows (edges were squared instead of rounded, among other things). I did it because though overall it was cheaper than the factory window, after the deductible, they were both the same cost.

Also, if you ever go to sell your car, it's a sure sign it had been replaced.
