hello, I am in so. cal and am in need of an untinted windshield for a 914 project. Does anyone know of a local source? The only ones that I have found so far have the tinted shade band.

I bought mine at the local Porsche dealership. I think it’s a better windshield.
Pro Source also has them I think clear and tinted but you need too check, not sure of the thickness or quality. Check the internet for location near you.

Try Vince, 760 600-6297. Hesperia, not going to be new. He has lots of 914 parts and is a good guy.

these folks are similar to my local supplier "low price auto glass" where i just got one 2 weeks ago (Rocklin)

they all get the same glass from only 2 current mfgrs & only a couple west coast jobbers one of which is "mygrant" https://www.mygrantglassonline.com/

first - my local guy said "they don't make it anymore"

- but then he found 2 tinted & 1 clear in inventory in CA - so i said "get it" (i like tinted)

( the clear one was in either Bakersfield or SJC iirc) (my tinted was in SJC)

fwiw - my cost for the windshield uninstalled was $185 - I paid another $140 for the install (after i removed the alu trim myself cuz they don't wanna touch it) - they did a beautiful job!

Your Porsche dealer is the best place, primarily because you avoid paying expensive shipping. PLUS it is better quality than the Chinese ones sold out there.
