front windsheild replacement

Post by thevalleyboy »

Anybody replaced their front windsheild lately - and how much did you pay and where are you located. Just curious?

I had my windshield on my '97 Astro replaced at Windshield Sugreons in Edmonton a couple of weeks ago for $209 (+$30 for new stripping) and got an extra 2 years of warranty for $49 which covers me for 3 rock chip repairs and replace the windshiel for $69. ALSO, with the extra 2 year warranty, I got an Oil/lube which will be mailed to me. (worth about $50) A good deal I thought, altogether about $300, not too bad for what I got. They did a good job, and were good guys. Hope that helps!

There's only ONE windshield. The rest are windows.

Here in the southeast corner of Texas, it costs $205 to get the windshield replaced. Now if you have it done through your insurance company, there is a $250 deductable. Hmmm. Wonder what is with that???

That would be state sales tax on the windshield. Some states even tax labor. :yikes:

Sales tax? Again, these are terms I am not familiar with.
