Can anyone suggest a reputable windshield installer in the Oakland, CA area? My original finally gave up and has cracked about 3/4 the way across. I have to go with a repop for now which I can buy from my local parts shop but I want a pro to install it and the trim so it's done right the first time. Being my daily driver and no garage is limiting me from doing it myself... Any suggestions are much appreciated!!!

This is how the old trim should come out, it usually takes a tap with a hammer on the razor blade to cut through the clip:

If you're going to hire it out, bring them a printout of some of this, especially a photo of where the trim clips are. A 914 has fairly unique windshield installation. It's super easy, but is absolutely not how 99% of glass shops will do the install if left to their 'professional experience'. You'll need to direct them, and if they won't do it, you need to find someone else. |
