Replacing a side window (as long as it's the ones you can roll down) is easy enough to do yourself. Just get the glass from the dealer, take off the door panel, and you can see it's only held onto the power window thingy by two bolts. Very easy to do.

Now if it's a fixed window, like the front or back or rear sides (the little ones), I'd go to a glass shop.

Let us know what you end up doing.

My car got broken into about two months ago and they broke the passenger window. Called Glass Doctor, they came to the car while I was at work, fixed the window, and they also dealt with the insurance company which fully covered the raplacement. Awesome company to deal with, I'm pretty sure they're national too.

That's messed up that some one will BB your car. Most of those glass replacement places are about the same. I think I used Safelite a while ago and they were pretty good.

Got my car broken into....my front passenger of my 02 TL was broken. I asked aroudn on the forums....Seems that OEM glass maker PPG is the same people who make the glass for Acura. You can find cheap places that will do it for 100-150...but they use "regular" glass. I got mine done for $178, they came to my work place..did it in about 30 mins. vacuum and install. Diamond Auto Glass / Triamph Auto Glass were refered to me when I call numbers i found on Yahoo! Yellow pages "Auto Glass Across America" 800-421-1414
