This instructable will show how I replaced the rear window on my 2002 Toyota Solara convertible with only a clear plastic sheet and lots of duct tape!
        The rear window of my convertible shattered and in lieu of shelling out big cash on replacement  and the installation fee, i opted for the cheaper route- clear plastic and duct tape.

This solution is very economical, easy enough that anyone can do, and takes around 10 minutes from start to finish.
I cut  a large piece of clear plastic sheet- I didn't measure it- and I duct taped the hell out of it, both inside and out, it was that easy.  This has lasted a month so far- it even withstood  Hurricane Irene!
 Not only does it lock out the water, it locks in the freshness!
