Cheapest New Windshield
« on: August 16, 2005, 02:46:24 AM »
Good friend of mine was nice enough to destroy mine by driving my truck after forgetting to lock the hood latches ( i dont have a metal latch in the middle under the hood) so now im looking for a cheap place to get the windshield replaced.  Anybody know of any winners?

Thanks

Moores Auto Glass 640-4142.  They usually do onsite installs for us.

What was that for, as I was quoted $125 for the aftermarket brand, and $135 for the North American brand... whatever that means.

Anybody know the difference?  What to look for, etc...

Well when i called i basically just said "How much to replace my windshield on my 88 YJ?" and then after looking she says "That will cost ya $110 including labour."

Sounds like a wicked enough deal to me.

Good deal Paul, that is aftermarket glass but as cheap as it is for a Jeep shield it doesnt matter how easy it cracks, because you can actually afford to put one in now and then.

Moores Auto Glass was the place. On the SE corner of where glenmore and blackfoot crossover.  The number is in the second or third post.  Cheap as hell, and the glass looks beautiful.
