    The rubber weatherstripping and new lockstrip runs around $125-150. Are they installing new weatherstripping? Usually the lockstrip can be reused.

      they're going to try to reuse the weatherstripping but if not, they'll replace it.

        We sell the windshield molding from $25-30, and the lock strip is $44-50, all depending on year/model. I believe it's all the same, the only difference is the chrome trim. The windshield usually runs for about $100-150.

              I got a new one for $114. I installed it. It was PPG glass, and that made me proud cause my grandfather and father put in 30 years each making glass at PPG.
