Replacing rear glass

Neighborhood kids broke into our bus then took revenge on us for asking them not to steal our things by throwing rocks and breaking the rear glass.

2001 International. What's our best bet for replacing this glass? Can a normal car windshield place do it? Ideas for cost? Not really into searching for a match to replace it as I'm short on time, but I am willing to go that route. Thanks!

I would check with your local auto glass shops. Many of them can cut a flat glass replacement.

I would recommend checking with small independent shops as well as the chains. I have seen differences of over 60% between mom& pop shops and chain shops.

I've had to do this job. Most glass shops don't want to mess with it. If you can go to them with accurate measurements it will go a long way. Keeps them from having to make several trips. Maybe take the frame with you to their shop.

After getting that done i had to find an installer also, but maybe you won't have to mess with that.
