Further, the estimated time for a good mechanic to do one window is 1 hour, but I think that is low. I would assume 2 hours per window and $219.00 per window for parts, price should be under $1,000.00. If you like I can get back to you and let you know how this goes. BTW, I also am from Pa., Bucks County.
Thank you for the info (probably 3 years ago), when I called I was having a problem with a ground connection, and I am now guessing they just were not interested in trouble shooting. I agree 1 hour sounds tight to me also.
