Default Windshield Replacement Info

In case anybody wants to replace their windshield, you do not have to buy the glass from the dealership. The dealership will want 564 to 800 for the glass itself. The glass is made by a company named Pilkington. It says it on the windshield itself. Make sure the installer buys the glass from a Pilkington dealer and it will be the exact same glass. The only difference is that it will not have a Chrysler logo that says safeguard and the label will be on the passenger right side of the windshield instead. It even comes with a new bracket for the rear view mirror already glued on.

Pilkington DW1540 Windshield

Speaking of the rear view mirror, it was very hard for them to take it off and they scratched the black part of my mirror, really annoying and it was hard for them to put it back on securely.

Overall, parts and labor were 162.38, not bad. I was sick of looking at all those pits when it was very sunny and at night. My registration and inspection stickers were due so it was a good time to do it.
