The glass is only £96 genuine. There is no way they can justify nearly £300 for installing a rear glass, even if it is bonded, that is around six hours labour. VW specify 190 time units which is less than 2 hours so about £200 from a main dealer plus glass.

Nice one Crasher ;)
Well the best i got so far after a good search is £170.
From what you told me this is starting to sound more realistic.
