Club member discount is 5% on all new hoods and 30% on windows (per
committee discussion last month) Also does Boat covers...
1989, plastic rear window). He assured me that this was a 'sharp
price', but I thought that $1100 was a normal price, let alone sharp
pricing.
There was some discussion of what to do with my glass rear-window, and
whether the window section could be re-fitted to the new roof, but I
don't believe that was included in the quote (but I could be wrong). He
(and his colleague) hadn't seen an unzippable glass window before.
I didn't get a written quote for a roof with glass window, but he
suggested at least $1500 for that. I rather like having a glass window
- it seems to provide a much clearer view, especially in the wet (I'm
comparing it with a well-treated/nearly-new plastic one I had
before).
Should I be looking for quotes elsewhere? All Care are conveniently
close to my home, and Eric had kind words to say about their work, but
I'm not yet convinced that the deal is good.
