Are you sure you can use the stock glass? I didn't think you could, but it would be pointless because the glass is really heavy.

He is right. The glass is the heaviest part of the rear hatch. Flex-a-lite makes a lexan rear window for the Tegs. If you mate that with a fiberglass or carbon fiber hatch, you'd be shedding a good bit of weight.

Can't say that I do. But it doesn't seem like a 5 minute install. Especially with new glass. If you're going to have the glass changed, I would have a pro do that. As far as swapping the rear hatch, it doesn't seem TOO difficult, but you would def. need 1 or 2 more people for help.
