I spent 170.00 to replace the 3 piece black plexi and it got stone damaged on 
our very next Mexico trip ~~the pieces are now held in place with black duck 
tape.....I guess I sould be happy the damage was not the dual pane window 
behind it !!!!
So it DID DO it's job but I am not ready to run right out and plunk down 
another 170. and then all the fuss to replace it! I am too busy spending all my 
cash readying my new to me 91 ford ATS TURBO diesel crew cab dually for our oct 
mexico jawnt!

Engine work  5200.00, tires 700.00, ...train air horn. $350.00.....brake 
work...pending??....Joy when driving the "great white beast!"     ~~~~PRICELESS!!!
