windshield

For reasons I'm not going to explain, I need a windshield.

North missouri preferred, rather not take a chance on having one shipped in.

Wife is paying for it...that ought to say enough. :mad:

Well, I'm a little happier today. Buying a couple of brand new guns will tend to have that effect.
Yeah she knows...(that I don't care...that is.) LOL

I'm gonna get a couple of quotes from the 2 glass places tomorrow...shouldn't be more than 200 bucks. Like I said..her dime though. (means our dime, though, really. .)

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

That's a pretty good price. I need a new one - I have a crack from the bottom corner edge on the driver side that has worked itself halfway up the window and inward a few inches.

Y'all need to move to Kentucky. Windshield glass is a no deductible, no out of pocket replacement. I've had three replaced and never saw an increase in my rates.

Same rate around here too. I paid $245 to have the glass replaced in my Focus after a rock was kicked up into the glass and the crack was too big to fill.

If they can fill the crack it's free here. Now if you need a windshield and the cost is under your deductible you're paying for it out of pocket.
