The Winter 2013 National Auto Glass Specifications (NAGS) International Benchmark Calculator, which goes into effect today, shows a relatively even number of increases and decreases from Fall 2012 numbers. glassBYTEs.com™/AGRR™ magazine analyzed a list of the current top 20 popular part numbers and found that the benchmark prices for 12 of 20 parts have decreased since the Winter 2012 calculator while at nine of 20 have increased since Fall 2012. Eight of the most popular products have increased benchmark price over the year.

The steepest price decline occurred for part FW02734GBNN which dropped 6.0 percent from $265.95 in Winter 2012. The part previously had seen a 5.6 percent decrease from $266.90 in September 2011 to $251.95 in September 2012.

Two other notable price declines from Winter 2012 to Winter 2013 occurred for parts DW01265GBNN and DW01265GBNN which both saw decreases of 3.3 percent over the year.

The greatest increase came for part DW01256GBNN which increased 2.1 percent for the year and 0.8 percent from the Fall 2012 benchmark. Part DW01504GBYN also saw a notable annual increase of 1.3 percent and 0.8 percent benchmark increase from September 2012.

Part DW01658GBYN saw a year with little change; though the price increased 1 percent from the Fall 2012 benchmark, it only decreased 0.1 percent over the year from Winter 2012.
