My best quote lately was $265.00 not installed. What have you found, anything much better?

I was quite pleasantly surprised to learn of this recently. $350 is not that much more than aftermarket, so this is the route I'll take next time. My glass person will install for $40. The same person will sell & install an aftermarket glass for $230, which I think is a great deal, especially considering the quality of the install.

(For those in the Portland, OR, area, the company I'm referring to Sam's Autoglass; their # is 503-896-3902. Not very professional over the phone, but great people, doing awesome work.)

I'd buy the one from the man above and have your glass
man install it. I take it you have no deductible??
another way to go!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

in one piece!

$200 PPG non-tinted, but I think that is the wholesale "I can pay cash" price.

I installed it myself. Not too hard, especially if you are glueing in and using the rubber surround instead of the chrome.

I had mine replaced for $205, including removal of the old windshield and installation of the new windshield and installation of all the metal trim. The installer came to my house to do the work.

Eric Read

Edit: He also threw in three trim clips that needed to be replaced at no charge.

It is usually not the price of the glass but the shipping! THAT will kill you. Our cash and carry price here is 199.50 To ship is much more expensive.
