Brand New Windshield - $328!!!
I've found a NorthWest source for SVX windshields. It's about a two hour drive East from Portland, OR.
Goldendale Glass Ask for Mike 509-773-4223 Goldendale, WA Mike said the car should sit for at least four hours after the windshield is glued into place and should be driven as little as possible for the next 48 hours. I'll be getting mine replaced by him in early June, I'm still working up at the ski resort (where mine got broken) until the end of May, no reason to risk catching another rock with a new windshield . . . ![]() According to Mike, Goldendale is "just a little dot of a town", there isn't much to do during the four hour wait. He said there are a couple of eateries and some second-hand stores to browse through. I don't know about the rest of you, but for that price I'll take a book and read for four hours sitting on the curb if I have to! Since he's an installer, not the manufacturer, I'll try to find out who makes the glass when I get mine installed. Hopefully it'll be a source that any installer can order from! Dan |

Great news!
I hope they don't have the titanium coating. I'd love to get a new one without it for better radar detection.

getting the supplier would be a godsend to the svx community
i paid 400 for a used one, and not the right color, at that! (i was desperate and not going to pay the 1000+ for dealer status) shooot, i would spend that kind of time myself to get it that cheap... i spent easily over 4 hours just researching where i was going to get it from GOOD JOB! BTW hows the snow at hood? just curious |

I am not that far North of that and could go there for that. The only thing that may be a problem is that it isn't supposed to be driven "much" in 48 hours.

Do we have an article that associates which color windshield (blue, green, bronze) comes with which model SVX?

I believe that any of the beige interiors got the bronze tint and the gray got the green or blue.

All Star Glass
I got new glass from All Star Glass for $310 installed. The were going to charge me $340 but they delivered the wrong glass. I had to wait another 45 minutes, so they knocked the price down to $310.
I called my local dealer to see how much they would charge, but they said they couldn't even get one for me, so they referred me to this place. It looks like they have locations all over California. I think this is a 3rd party glass. The windshield seems to be tint free. http://allstarglass.net/indexlist.html Hope this helps! |

I'm very interested in seeing what comes out of this. If a supplier can provide SVX windshields for $300-$350 + shipping, I'd seriously consider picking up an SVX again as a daily driver. My WRX will retire as my daily around the middle of next year. It'll soon be a dedicated weekend racer/track car as I prepare for SCCA Nationals in Topeka, KS in '07!
