Default Windshield replacement DFW

Anyone have a source for getting a 2006 roadster windshield replaced in the DFW area?

Safelight is the only company I'd use.

I used safelight about 8 months ago. The technician didn't know how to remove the rearview mirror and ended up bending the tangs apart, so the mirror flopped around after it was replaced. They also didn't insulate around the windshield very well such that when I go over 40mph I hear a whistling sound inside the cabin. They may be the only ones who can replace the windshield for you, but I would recommend you remove the rearview mirror for them first (you rotate the base using a pin, there are no screws holding it)

Look up posts by

He is from Texas. I don't know how far from you. He states he an installer and bought out a company's crossfire windshield supply.

Thanks, saw that when I first got the car. He isn't too far from me, but never responded.
Have a company coming out Monday to do a couple of cars for me. Will see how it goes, but not a bad price.
