Storm last night dropped a large branch onto the driver side windshield. It is shattered, not just cracked. This makes coach not drivable.

Any thoughts on source for windshield and installation in the twin cities area?

I had hoped to get windshield replaced at a rally some day utilizing the coordination skills of Ken B.... Guess I have to do the legwork myself now.....

Thanks

We had our passenger window replaced by American Glass in Prior Lake a couple of years ago.
They did a great job and no leaks.

Thanks Rick - That lifts my spirits a bit this morning.

We can drop ship new windshields any place in USA and quote delivered price.
Just make sure the glass installer has experience with curved glass
Not a big deal, just ask them to use plenty of sealant.

Insurance co cannot send you to anyshop, it is your call along with what
the shop needs to charge.
Once you have the figures advise the Insurance people the plan and cost.

Joe,
I believe I gave American Glass Applied’s contact info but I’m not positive where they ended up getting the glass, they took care of all of that.

Being a glass for such old coach, lot of shops have no clue as to where to
get.

I've had to replace two drivers side windshields in the last three years.
Every time I take to to my installer he insists on using his contacts, so
if he breaks the windshield he is covered by his insurance. That is
what he told me. I tried to give Jim K's infor but he didn't what it.

look up the zip code.
