Default Stolen radar detector, broken window, help please.

My passenger side window got busted last night and they stole my ****'n $300 radar detector. Just curious how much I should be looking to spend for a new window? Anyone replaced one by themselves?

Edit: oh **** I read that as "anyone know how much a for a new one?" one being radar detector.

Sorry I have no clue how much the window costs, just read your post wrong (I think a few others read it wrong too)

Damnit man that sucks I hate to hear that. I dont know a price but I would try and find out who did that to your car and make them pay for it.

There are always people like this, worthless pieces of ****

I have a Passport Escort 8500 X50 in blue, looks really neat and works awesome as hell.

Goodluck!

I would check around on ebay or for someone parting out their car in the for sale section. I imagine it would not be that hard to replace. I have done my power windows plenty of times and if you have a helper it goes pretty quick. i can not remember if the glass is glued to the metal or plastic piece it attached to but it should not be that difficult once you get a new one. I am pretty sure i have seen a few pass side windows floating around ebay in the past.
