So earlier this morning I was pulling out of a parking space and out of nowhere this tree rear-ended me! it shattered the rear window and broke the spoiler and put a huge dent in the rear door. I was wondering if anybody has replaced the rear door before and knows about how much its going to cost to get a new one. its a 2005 Limited. Damn trees... Thanks!

Insurance.

That will be an expensive fix. I'll be curious as to what the rear door will cost as mine has a huge dent in it.:sobbing:

:eek: wooooow. That really sucks. Can you post pics?

By rear ended did you run into it, or did it fall on you?
 
I'm very sorry. There is a lot of electrical in there, maybe, if you're lucky, you could get one from a pick n pull? Same color etc or get it painted, just a thought. I had a similar occurrance, although it involved my open back gate and the garage door. Epoxy and wire strippers FTW
 
Insurance claim I Think

Ouch,Sorry to hear that cause I'm remember the pain this will cost. This is why you pay for insurance. My stealership quoted me about 1400$ for a new glass and regulator. The dealer technician work time was going to be from 2.5 to 4hrs. Online I found them at 500 to 600$ for the glass and 100 to 200$ for the regulator. This is pre shipped pre tax, and not installed. It is pretty tight in there and it is not easy to work. Also I didn't want to chance the glass falling onto my feet or breaking all over my face. But I was luckier that my lift gate glass wasn't the main problem, but my regulator. And since it bolts on to the glass when the regulator was removed one of the glass connection points broke off. Which is why I would need a brand new glass. The dealer warned about that before we started the job. So I stopped the repair right there, told them to just leave the glass as is and not put the regulator back on, I built some clips to hold the glass. Window doesn't slide down anymore but I don't mind that. There is probably a good 600$ for the just the door itself, without any other required hardware and trim, bumper? tail lights? any other electrical component$$?$?$?$

Hope it's not raining where you are.....
 
What king of tree was it? But, seriously, sry to hear that. Whole door? Dude did you floor it or what? All sounds $$$. I feel your pain bro.
 
I was rear ended about a year ago and it did very little damage to the bumper but put two dents in my tailgate that could not be removed. After a new gate and all the final bill to the other guys insurance was a bit over $2000. Good luck.
