Looks great! I like how it looks, and how it's different from all the 3rd gens you see, but I'm partial to my hatch glass

I can't tell by the pics, did you get glass for it?

By the way, GTA4ME seems to get into just about every Notchback thread Since he posted his, i guess i'll dare and post mine:

i dont know how much your notch weighs but my was way lighter than the glass hatch. with crating around it, it was under a hundred pounds and it is so much lighter that when i put it on, my rear sits about and inch and a half higher than it did with the glass. and my rear window is removable it just latches into place. it even came with an extra one thats not tinted

i've never unbolted any of mine off to weigh them. But i do know they are quite a bit of weight savings, as i had a white '88 T/A T-Top (non-Notchback). When the struts gave out on that hatch, you could feel the weight of that hatch, due to the glass, it seemed to weigh a ton
