Question Rear Windshield

Does anybody know a rough estimate for replacing a rear windshield on an M-Class? Thanks,
-Frank

Good place to start is your dealer. I would not let an independent auto glass place due this as there are numerous things that could be a problem such as the degree of tint and the radio antenna that are involved. What happened to yours???

Additionally we've found repair kits that used chemicals that rusted metal. Just what you need on a structurally important part of your vehicle. We've seen the results after a couple of years, too. Not nice. I'd rather see someone use an aftermarked windshield than an aftermarket installation kit. At least on an ML you can replace the rear door if it rusts. If it's your A pillar that's a real problem.
