    Replacement Windshield

    So guys where is the best deal for a quality replacement windshield in socal? Preferably more towards the IE or San Diego area. All the main big places I call are like 200+ install. Mine looks like a 15 year olds acne covered cheeks. Thanks guys.

    Pick a part in irwindale. The guy charged me 130 for mine
    He pulled it out the junk yard then put it in mine in like 45min.

        $130 for used? Ouch.

        I go to a place by a junkyard near me usually. I think it's $120-$140 installed for new aftermarket.

          yeah I'm looking for new. That's a pretty solid deal for new glass Matt, just not sure if the drive is worth it since I'm down in Lake Elsinore.

              I used Safelite recently. $225 installed for their brand glass including new seal & locking strip. Not OEM but I'm happy with it.

                    I got it done cheaper than that. Cats outta the bag now.

                            Safelite is your best bet. I think i paid a little over $200 for my OEM glass though.
