I think that the morale of the story is that you shouldn't spend $200 on a Marc Echo watch...

go to a place where they can get you a glass window because the dealership will rape you.

QFT!!!!

I had to replace the windshield on the Evo I recently bought. The dealership quoted me like $700 for just the glass. That's not installed or with the trim or anything.

I went local and got the entire thing installed with trim for a total of $180.

I Don't need an alarm. I keep a Live Tiger in my back seat for people who want to steal my radio remote. LOL

cheaper to fix it yourself, otherwise with that deductible and your insurance rising because of it, just fix it and don't report it. a police report would be good though.

Sorry to hear about the breakin. Mine got broken into in Columbus, OH. Got replacement glass from Buschur's for 150 IIRC. I hear the dealership price is 260 or so... that's not that bad and the convenience might be worth it.
