OEM windshield 23.8 lbs
Poly windshield 16.0 lbs
7.8 lb savings

OEM rear hatch 17.8 lbs
Poly rear hatch 10.4 lbs
7.4 lb savings

Full disclosure on weighing technique: I weighed myself on a good bathroom scale, then weighed again holding the glass and subtracted to get the difference. Not too scientific, but should be close enough.

wow thanks for the info
