Windshields
So I'm looking for the best replacement windshield and searching the site the reviews are mixed at best. Has anyone bought their glass from Brothers? They state that their windshields are OEM thickness. Can anyone verify this?
Thanks! Randy |

Re: Windshields
Pilkington I believe is the manufacture that most here agree is the best and thickest.

Re: Windshields
When I asked this same question, reliable sources told me to use Pilkington.

Re: Windshields
Pilkington bought Libbey Owens Ford, which was an original equipment supplier for GM. PPG, the other major supplier, changed their name to PGW and then sold their glass business.

Re: Windshields
I got mine at Auto City Classic and I am very happy with them. If you call and want to talk to someone about their glass products ask for Denny.

Re: Windshields
I had ordered mine through Summit Racing, got a gasket from Rock Auto. Not sure about the thickness or manufacturer but it's been in for two weeks without any problems.
