Ken can this also be a BYOW event and just pay them for the install? I bought a crated set from a once GMCer who sold coach. A GMCer friend used right side. I have a L windshield in my barn. Cinnabar put a hairline crack in the one they installed 12 years ago and the 1” crack is now about 2”. I don’t expect it will self heal.

This is a question that should be answered on the gmcwindshield@gmail.com email address. But I will answer it here. The normal answer is NO.
But they have been known to make an exception and do some of that on Sunday afternoon when every thing else is finished. The brand, age, and condition of windshield is very important to them. If it is a new Coach Glass, Varicon, or Pilkington brand windshield, bring it and I will see if they will do it. Better yet, Look in the bottom corner for the built-in DOT label and write it down. Send it to me at GMCwindshield.gmail.com or call me and I will ask.
note: If the edges were not sealed up the glass tends to de-laminate (come apart) even in storage over time.

John,
I have talked to the installers and they said YES they would install your BYOW (windshield) at the rally. The cut off date is coming soon. I currently have Saturday full but I have some Sunday times open.
Also the US just announced that Canadians may NOT enter the US by land but can fly in. That does not help much going to a GMC rally in your own coach. I have two orders from Canadians that I will probably have to cancel. This means that I will probably have some additional slots Saturday available.
They definitely said that they will do yours. I am also working one for a SOB coach.
So please contact me at gmcwindshield@gmail.com so I can get you on the schedule.
For everyone else. If you are interested and still procrastinating, contact me soon as I still have some slots open and we are running out of time for me to order windshields and have them delivered to Chippewa Falls.

Ken
I sent you an email but have not received any confirmation, so I'm paranoid that you didn't get it.
Did you?
