I recently bought a '74 1.8 driver and a '73 2.0 parts car (part-out to follow soon). I already pulled the good windshield from the parts car and I am in need of some experience on getting it installed. I plan on getting it installed professionally for safety reasons. I have a couple questions though.

1.Does anyone have any good or bad experience with windshield installers in New England area, specifically southern ME, eastern NH?
2.Will the installer have all the parts/gaskets required?
3.What parts/gaskets do i need to ask the installer to use?
4.Anyone have any experience with the gasket used to eliminate the silver trim? (still haven't decided)

I've been lurking the boards for a while, but now i finally have my car. I'll try to be less invisible.

Thanks,
Sean

I've had them reset my windshield on both of my 914's and was very pleased.

It will set you back a few pennies over the local glass replacement shop, however you will happier with the results.
