Windshield?

Is this a good place to ask for good windshield? Or am I dreaming....?

I'm in Maine, can drive to anywhere in NE to get it.

Dealer price for a new one is rather impressive...

Today is even luckier. There is a supplier that sells them for $275.00. They come in green/blue tint, or bronze. I will look up the information about them. They do come out of China, but they guarentee 100% statisfaction. I am going to try to see one of them and check out the quality.

I can get you a windshield for under $500 and I have a guy that would install it cheap I'd imagine. I'll ask how much for an install when I call him tomorrow about removing some glass for me this week.

I'm gonna need one too.........dang thing cracked all the way up from a pinhole chip.....

Earl, who's this seller you speak of? And is that price include shipping?

Jason, you have any leads on a possible good condition windshield?


In the meantime I will have to call my ins. company to see if I am covered.

Damn, this site is great! On my end I decided not to travel so am biting the bullet and having the dealer in Portland Maine do it. Got the price down a bit, but nowhere's near that "China" deal...

Earl, or anyone else, what color is my windshield on a 95 polo green svx?
Does it actually have green tint?
I'm asking because I'm trying to get quotes online at this point.
I think some choices are bronze, blue, and green tint.

I could be wrong but the 95L has a "cheaper" blue windshield.

I guess a way to do it is to hold a piece of white paper on it from the outside and sit inside the car to see what color it closely matches....I saw that somewhere browsing the internet while trying to get quotes.

I'll have to do that later in the parking lot at work to confirm.

Earl, if you can get me some info on that supplier it would be greatly appriciated. I have a guy that can install it, it's just getting the glass itself that is extremely pricy, especially around here. Thanks.
