If you provide the glass it's cheaper, you should be able to get one from a junkyard for less than a brand new one.

Re: anyone know where to get cheap windshields?
I had my windshield replaced a couple of months ago with new rubber molding for $240. Can't really beat that. I'm betting you could do better since my glass had to be shipped in from the US.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Mine was replaced for 130 installed at a local glass shop, I have had it crack twice(fire damage the first time, hail damage the second).

Re: anyone know where to get cheap windshields?
Im not sure what insurance company you use but my glass is 100% paid for by them, no cost even when a stone hit mine. check your coverage ![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)

Re: anyone know where to get cheap windshields?
I found a local wholesale place that sells custom parts and stuff. Bought the windshield brand new for $50. Then went over 10 blocks to Picknpull were they have a glass installation place right next to it. Paid $60 for the install.
