Since I have to replace the rear window of the car I was thinking of replacing it with the FAL Lexan type window...it's significantly cheaper at less than 1/3 the cost of a new Integra rear window...and it's lighter.

Any opinions on this? Thoughts, experiences?

Thanks,
Austin

 

I'll quote myself from your tree vs. j00 thread:

 

Not sure if you race, but if so you may want to make sure it's not illegal for your series.

DO IT, DO IT, DO IT, DO IT, DO IT!


And make sure you put it in a c/f hatch while you're at it.....

 

Do it, i hear the Fal Lexan Style Windows, are much more durable, then normal lexan, and they are very good for daily driven vehicles.

and unbreakable...see dem theives bust that

 

esteban has it on his car....looks damn good but you won't have rear defrost anymore

 

Calling Flex-a-Lite for some ?'s...now if I could only get them to answer the phone...

get the 97 R window... it has no wiper hole and no defroster, plus you won't have the hastle of scratching it.

 

1997 ITRs have rear defrosters.

 

Just called Flex-a-Lite...and the have it in stock, called my wholesaler and found out that I can get it for $300 shipped to the body shop......now I have a little something else I'm able to pick up with the $$$ difference...damn this is looking good for me

i was warned about how easy they scratch and so i babied the windows...and i was careful to use only a soft towel and mild soap to clean them....

but that became tiresome and now i just use papertowels and windex...

and still no scratches...it is very durable and with a little fogX on them inside and out, they rarely cloud up, even on early mornings

 

Thank you EP that's just what I wanted to hear
