New windshield

[Tobyspaw]

I got a great deal on a new windshield. Now I need to have it installed. What else do I need? What's a reasonable price for installation?

Sorry,I forgot to add .Mine is an 01 sport.

I guess it was about 7 to 10 years ago when I had mine replaced. I think I paid $130, and I drove to their place.

I paid $135 and he came to me

[Tobyspaw]

Would I need a new seal also or is everything reused?

[4.3LXJ]

That price I paid was for everything, windshield and installation. He used a type of windshield caulk

The pro's know usually if a new seal is needed and they also have some kind of special caulk they use. I leave installation to the pro's. It is not something done everyday by us "Rookies."

Had mine replaced, just recently.
Watching him do it, the right tools definitely make it a breeze. I got a new rubber garnish mould. If it's hard, replace it.
The windshield is glued in with sikaflex.

Working in my brothers body shop I removed quite a bit of glass.
To this day I have not successfully installed a piece of glass.. Leave it to the pros is my suggestion.

Had mine done by carter glass. They came to the parking lot at work. It was a lil over 200.
They came back out about a month later and fixed it when it started leaking. No questions asked. Great people to deal with.

Guy said I need a new seal. Guess I'll have to order 1. He wants 60 to install.

Better just let him do his thing. That is not much to install

Windshield is installed,required new rubber seal.
