It depends on the car, but for my GS it was $350. Give him a call and he'll give you a quote on the spot.

i paid $180 for 4 windows + back window back in Dec 2000.
It is still perfect.
that was in Brooklyn, NY..
I would not expect to pay much more than that..
Ask around at a local car audio shop..
