    How long did you have to wait for your replacement windshield after it was ordered, they said I might get mine this Friday, it's taken two weeks so far since ordered, I guess they had to make it lol.

    Not a drop. My old windshield was turning white around the edges. I didn't want to use that glass after I put in a new headliner.

    Has anyone had a windshield installed by these folks? The price seems right - $290.00 installed at ur home/business, etc., $190.00 pickup.
    http://www.windshieldstogo.com/ I don't know if that's for tinted glass - got to have tinted - for sure.
    I will ck w/ them when I am ready
