there are some companies that make it, like speedglass i think, with a protective coating so you can use wipers on it, pretty dang pricey though.

I`ve "heard" with the speed glass and a fiber hatch you save around 70 off the rear. I had a lexan hatch window in my 83 F-body and it dose scratch easy. I`ve read on this fourm that speed glass dose not scratch as bad with the scratch resistant coating (or scratch at all). Other than the lexan window on my 83 I don`t have any other experience with any other lexan or lexan equivalent glass products. I hope this may help a bit. I`ve been considering a VFN rear hatch with Speed glass but I still need to get my VFN hood on and I really need to quit spending money on this car and think about buying a house.
