just drop by any glass shop and mention that you have a crack in your windshield. the'y be happy to keep you on thier mailing list for the next 25 years.

personally i would suggest Ken's auto glass in Roseburg Oregon. good guy he'll hook you up. but probibly looking for someone local huh?l.

I won't get used. I had it done down in San Diego for $150 installed so I'm pretty sure it's about the same price up here.

if you get pilkinton automotive replacement glass, it will be cheap. If you get PPG automotive replacement glass, it will be a tad more expensive.

Last time my quote for a PPG made windshield was at 178 installed.

Be careful, your windshield molding may be bad ---> costly to replace... It will add an additional 100 bucks IIRC. this is for S13

out here by riverside I have been quoted $105-125 for them to come to you and do the service at your house or place of business. BTW about the molding, be wary that hopefully the worker is good enough to not damage it too bad. I also need to get mine replaced due to an Al-Qaida pigeon that tried to bomb me last year.

If you guys have Pick-n-pull down there, there's a glass place that's contracted to do business outside in the parking lot. If you find em, they do front windshield replacements on S13s for 125 dollars. This includes the glass, the labor, adhesive, and molding.

Does anyone know where you can get the molding for cheap. Every place I've checked wants $150 for the molding. The windsheild is only $125 new, installed.

your phone book can tell you a good glass place
