Replacement windshield 200

The 91-93 style comes with the molding built in. It is part of the windshield when you order it. You have to specify for 91-93 (just say 1993) and the glass shop will order that part from their supplier.

I don't know about the clip kit. I've had windshields replaced in 240s, but for the $120 or $125 (wholesale) it wasn't worth asking questions about their methods, as long as it didn't leak.

If they don't show a difference between the two, then they should be stocking or servicing only the later style of windshield. The design is better and quieter.

I have a pic of the molding on the later windshield. It sits virtually flush with the A-pillars when viewed from the side.

As far as paying for it goes, go for it. You should get out for less than $175. And if you really chip away at prices, you migth be able to find someone to do it for less than $150. Of course it depends on the area.

I've had good luck with aftermarket glass quality. Volvo glass is nice, but I have a major distortion in my 940's windshield, and it is a Volvo piece as well. Basically any glass can have distortion; it isn't relegated to the aftermarket stuff.
