Replacement windshield 200

I had mine done to all that long ago, a few months, and am very happy. the original glass was very pitted, it leaked and had rusted my floorboards, you know the story. Here in Portland, OR every place I called ran between $190- and $225-. I caled 5 or 6 places and 2 of them asked me about which style I wanted and took the time to explain the differences to me. I went with the less expensive of the 2 places but bought the better (newer) style. The reason to have it installed is that when there's a teeny tiny little dribble in the glass, the shop fixes it for free. The sealant is very messy and they have tools that apply apply a very nice consistent bead to help with the seal. Obviously nobody's perfect but they work hard to be close to it. I am very happy I spent this money, I don't think I could have done as nice a job as these guys did and when there was an issue, they were right on top of it. Accpeting the fact that you can't do everythng to your car yourself is really a healthy thing. :) You'll love your new glass!
