Depends on the model year. Have someone with access to the EPC look up the part 
number and check the price online. OE glass is often a lot cheaper than you 
would think.

Oh they are. This is about being acquired and new company trimming the fat. I 
have a feeling they are going to try not having people in the field and just 
doing everything over the phone. They tried this when it was acquired the last

Sorry to hear it. These consolidations/downsizings suck. I've only been through

they just shut everything down.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Rats love Tesla's

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

 At one point Ford used an undercoating that was based on some kind of pine tar 
that attracted rodents. It also dissolved in the presence of gasoline. The '03 
Ranger we had rusted worse than any other vehicle I've ever owned. At 11 years 
mine was a total rust bucket, like to the point that the spare tire carrier had 
disintegrated and the tire fell out on the road.
My 2010 Dodge RAM is rusty but nowhere near as bad as that Ford.
