[V8] Windshields and filters

[allanvega at adelphia.net]

It seams to me that most, if not all glass company base there pricing on the region you live in. For example Safe lite quoted me $450 for a v8 glass w/molding and just under $300 for the 5000 glass w/molding

> I have been looking for a new windshield fore months. The cheapest one I can find is $800.00 installed. And I don't believe that's with factory glass either. I had a guy quote me $450.00, but then said he couldn't do it for that little. At least he was up front about it. I too have heard that glass from a 5000 will fit but the prices for them are not to far below the correct one. Less than $50.00 installed. Where are these $200.00 windshields at?

Other that a rubber piece coming loose from the first one ( replaced that same day under warrantee) I have never had any problems with them at all. I have them installed in all my vehicles. I look at cleaning and oiling as part of general maintenance and gives me a chance to look under the hood on a regular basis.
