Mobile windshield replacement?
Anyone used one previously with good results? Found several online but would like to go through one that others have used previously...need the windshield on my 00 GTP replaced.
Thanks,
Bill

Bill My friend and I have used this place. It is out of Deleware, but the service was really good and the price lower than the others.

I believe I looked into them but were at a much higher cost...for my 12 year old vehicle I'm looking to keep the cost as low as possible

Back in March I used Safelite to pop a new windshield in a '92 Cherokee. Cost was ~$275, only took 40 minutes from start to finish.
Wish I had found that place linked above....their cost for that Cherokee was just quoted to me at ~$175.

If it's got the HUD make sure you mention it.

I'll try to find the name of the company that I used a few years back. They came out to the house and replaced the windshield in my '90 F250. They did a great job and it was a reasonable price.

Got the windshield on my wife's minivan replaced a couple of days ago, they offer credit card payment as well(they have a wireless swiper in the truck) same guy as last time, about 35 mins start to finish 
HOpefully I won't need to see him again for a few years minimum ie I hope no more of our windshields need to be replaced

If you have HUD, dont pay the extra for the heads up windshield. You dont need. I put HUD into my non-HUD car and I can see the display fine.
